The Merida EX enduro returns for 2024 and pre-registration is open

Amid the organizer's plans for an e-MTB-only eEX event, rumors of the EX's demise have been in circulation for some time. Happily, Mike Wilkins and the EX organizing team have bowed to pressure not to change things just yet, so the EX in its original format will return this year, welcoming analog and motor-assisted riders alike.

As usual, the three days of enduro racing will take place upon some of the steepest ups and downs the Exmoor hills can offer over 100km of trails with savage amounts of climbing. Riders will be provided with morning uplifts to make the start of each day slightly easier, then there are the famous night stages (Exposure will be on hand to lend lights if required), uniquely brilliant feed stops, nightly entertainment (with a free bar) and everything else that make the EX one of our favorite events in the UK race calendar. The dates for your diary are the 6th to the 8th of September.
