VILLAGE WW
Cité de l’Océan, Biarritz

PUNK’S PEAK – 21/06
Mount Jaizkibel, Spain
SPRINT RACE – At the top of Mount Jaizkibel, between the sea and the mountains, pilots from all four corners of the planet will compete in 400-meter sprints. An opportunity to see amazing bikes prepared over many months in their workshops.
WAW VINTAGE RALLY – 23/06
Bud Racing Training Camp, Magescq

THE RACE OF THE LORDS – 23/06
Bud Racing Training Camp, Magescq
SAND RACE – A 300m sand track, a standing start with a U-turn at mid-run, 2 pilots compete with their machines in the purest tradition of the sand races organized by the American soldiers at the end of WW2.
EL ROLLO – 24/06
Hipódromo de San Sebastián, Spain
DIRT TRACK – On the burning track transformed into arena, pilots will try to master the drift and win the heats. No front brake, a metal sole, a ring and “gaaaaz!”. The heroes of this epic spectacle have just one principle: turn left (Go West)!
