France Leads World Trophy on Day 1 as FIM 6Days Gets Underway in Spain

After a busy week of preparation in Silleda, the FIM International Six Days of Enduro (ISDE) finally got down to racing for day one. Wasting no time easing the five-hundred-and-forty plus competitors from over thirty nations into proceedings, today was a physically demanding day in the saddle.

With riders completing six special tests and two laps of the one-hundred-and-twenty-five-kilometre Santiago loop, it was clear come the end of day one that this year’s NOCO FIM 6DAYS® will be a true enduro challenge.

Losing over forty minutes to make repairs, it instantly dropped the 2022 champions to the bottom of the leaderboard.

Later, Italy became the first World Trophy nation to lose a rider when Andrea Verona (GASGAS) stopped on the liaison as they began lap two. Also losing Manuel Verzeroli (KTM) in the Junior World Trophy ensured a bad day at the office for the Italians.
