In this episode we're talking hard enduro silly season! Whether you're driving to work, heading back from a weekend ride or working on the bike in the garage make sure to tune in to this weeks episode, we think you'll enjoy it.

Firstly, there have been a handful of announcements recently from riders who have either joined new teams or gone independent. We start off clarifying who's definitely made a move for the 2026 season.

Of course when a rider thanks their old team and parts ways, there's almost always a new team announcement on the horizon! The rider we're all looking at right now is James Moore who claimed the 2025 FIM Junior Hard Enduro Championship and finished his season with a career defining win at Roof Of Africa. We also have another South African rider, Thomas Scales who looks to be moving to international waters.

We end off the episode summarizing which riders will not be changing for the new season and are expected to stay with their current teams and setups.

We hope you enjoy this episode!
