The oldest off-road motorcycle competition on the FIM Calendar is the International Six Days Enduro, or ISDE, originally known as the International Six Days Trial. It’s indeed one of the most iconic motorsports events featuring two wheels in the dirt, with several manufacturers releasing special edition models paying homage to the Six Days Enduro.
The ISDE finds its roots in Carlisle, England, where it was first held in 1913. Since then, the event has been held almost annually, save for interruptions during the two World Wars, and much more recently, the COVID-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, the world has moved on, and the 2023 International Six Days Enduro has been announced. Indeed, following the 2022 ISDE in France, excitement surrounding the rigorous enduro event is high, and the 2023 season will return to South America, marking five years since the series was last held in the region—in Viña del Mar, Chile.
