Someone on PB made the comment to the effect that the Europe can have enduro back. Everyone's doing it wrong, so take it back! PLEASE?

is this true?Two things
1: No kidding. Everyone knows that.
2: No one is making fun of the race format (at least not the good ones held in real mountains). What's ripe for the pickin' is the large number of industry dollars, especially in merka, being thrown at defining some new lifestyle, bikestyle, mindset that has already existed forever. Seriously man, look at that choad in that video acting like 'enduro' is some grand new concept. He's a race promoter who wants people to come to his races. He's a race promoter who throws money at DJs for his events and forgets to rent porta potties so people have a place to take a dump throughout a two day 20 hour event. It's the 'scene' he wants more than anything.
And that shlt is hilarious.
they're secretly the same thing
He's the guy who does the Oregon enduro series.
Regarding where he spends his money......when you hear it from multiple people who race his series coming back from multiple events all griping about the same thing, I doubt they all can be accused of collusion.
When I'm on emptybeer every now and again, I check out the enduro section and cringe a little....

i guess you're not really enduro'ing unless you're sh*tting in the woods
I know, enduro in US is a joke.
Matt Wrag lives in Italy and doesnt miss anything.

no dude that's CX (cyclocross), aka "winter xc racing"
Farkin A. That's good stuff.
I am sure he is.
no it is pre-enduro.
Ridemonkey delivers as usual.
Yeah, but I like overmountain because it failed.
I found this footage of Mark Weir teaching his son how to Enduro
That's not enduro!!! He didn't have on a full-face helmet.
does that make you a hipster then?
only if he has a tshirt that says that, paired with skinny jeans
and a beard.
don't forget the stainless steel flask.
too mainstream. needs to be tree back and animal skin.
Flasks are soooooo 2004. Today it's all about the banana holder
Enduro and Hipster Approved!
something more outrageous than goggles with an non-full face helmet?
Goggles and a Castro hat?
Don't forget the prerequisite can of pbr
and no socks w/some raggedy old canvas shoes. ideally the skinny jeans are colored rust orange, green or red.
Or some of these.
i forgot to add that this t-shirt should be a dangerously low cut v-neck
