The season opener in Reetz on April 13th already promises excitement. The online registration has been open for 15 days now, and over 100 drivers have already signed up. Among them are also the top drivers from last season. Particularly promising is Leon Hentschel (BETA), who finished the season with a win at the finale. Like Felix Bähker (KTM), he has switched brands, and in the coming days, Milan Schmüser will also announce a change.
For the fifth time, the MSC Burg Eisenhardt e.V. will host a race at the Reetzer Mühlenberg as part of the DOWATEK HardEnduroSeries Germany. The track in Fläming already has a tradition in the series. In the 2020 season, they were the only organizer to receive permission for the race despite the COVID-19 crisis. Since then, interest in Brandenburg has continued to grow, and the track has become increasingly suitable for Hardenduro riders.
Preparations have already been made, and new challenging climbs in the "Sandkasten" are being brought to life.
The number of starting places is limited to 150 participants, so you should hurry to secure a spot. Currently, registration is still open via the following link: www.hardenduro-germany.de/registration-5-reetzer-hardenduro-13-04-2024
The Luminus Energie HESG Kids also start their season in Reetz
After pausing in Reetz last season, the HESG Kids will be participating this time around, experiencing the season opener in Reetz as well. With the new title sponsor Luminus Energie, the HESG organization has a new strong partner by its side. In Reetz, the kids on the 50 and 65 cc bikes can expect a roughly 3-minute loop. They will compete in 2 races, each lasting 15 minutes.
The 85 cc class will be scored as usual in the group race. Here is the registration link for the season opener of the Luminus Energie HESG Kids: www.hardenduro-germany.de/registration-hesg-kids-reetz-13-04-2024
Crimmitschau with new highlights
For the race in Crimmitschau (April 27th/28th, 2024), online registration begins in 6 days (March 27th, 12:00 PM). The race will again take place over 2 days. Already on Saturday evening (April 27th), the ACE Bikes PrologAward will take place at 6:00 PM, just like last year. Participants who cannot participate in this prologue still have the opportunity to participate in the races on Sunday (April 28th). These participants will then be sorted to the end of the starting grid in the group races.
The HET Reinsdorf is already preparing new sections of the track. Due to the active operation of the company, the tracks change each time, so the riders can expect new highlights every year.
Additionally, in Crimmitschau on Saturday, the Sächsische Offroadcup will take place again, and on Saturday evening, a motorcycle limbo will be held as a side event before heading into the festival tent.
New points allocation in the classification categories
In all classifications, points will be awarded up to the 20th place in the 2024 season. Due to the large number of registered drivers in all classifications, a unified system is now being implemented. This is intended to make the championship decision more open in the classes throughout the season.
