<b>Your 2014 EWS Champions and the end to one incredible season of racing! Thank you to all involved in such an epic year.</b> -Dave Trumpore
The end of an incredible 2014 Enduro World Series has come and gone. After traversing the globe, the series concluded in the dream-like sea side town of Finale Ligure, Italy. Ancient trails among the scenic hills provided the final trails of battle where Fabien Barel and Anne-Caroline took race wins, while Jared Graves and Tracy Moseley rode consistently enough to retain Enduro World Series Championship titles. The in-depth interviews and breath-taking photos from Sven Martin and Dave Trumpore take you trackside as we bid the season farewell. A huge thanks goes out to Sven and Dave as well as everyone that made the 2014 Enduro World Series a season to remember!

Sounds like this EWS thing has given French riders a reason to learn English,
it's almost a pleasure to listen to Jérôme, Damien and Fabien.
