By Team TMX on 31st Jul 15
A brand-new event in Italy on the weekend of August 29/30, The Wall will see extreme enduro specialists Graham Jarvis and Jonny Walker fight against Enduro World Champions Alex Salvini and Johnny Aubert.
The Wall Extreme Enduro will be held for the first time at the Metzeler Off-road Park in Pietramurata, northern Italy. More accustomed to battling his Extreme Enduro rivals, Graham Jarvis will get the chance to take on the stars of the EWC
Cumbrian-flyer Jonny Walker has confirmed his participation at the event too and Alfredo Gomez, another Extreme Enduro rider will also line up at the start.
EWC regulars who will race The Wall include Sherco's Matti Seistola, TM's Manuel Monni, Beta's Giacomo Redondi and Honda's Alessandro Battig. Also signed up are Beta-mounted brothers brothers Ben and Dan Hemingway.
The event will feature a format similar to Italy's famous Hell's Gate extreme enduro, with a morning qualification session and an afternoon final. The number of riders allowed to enter is limited to 150.
There'll be a motocross and an enduro special tests and three laps in total for the morning qualification session. Riders with best times will progress to the afternoon session. The Main Event will see the best 10 riders compete in an extreme test inside the Metzeler Offroad Park late in the afternoon.
