We welcome Kirsten Landman onto the World Hard Enduro Podcast following her race at Xross in Serbia and ahead of 2024 Red Bull Romaniacs. We discuss how she got into riding dirt bikes and her big break into racing as a profession.

Often professional athletes are placed on a pedestal, sometimes we forget that they’re normal people too who face very similar challenges in life. Kirsten shares not only her challenges and how she overcame them but also her racing highlights including the Dakar 2023.

We dive deeper into the topic of women in a male-dominated sport and discuss how the sport could adapt to encourage more women competitors. Lastly if you would like to support Kirsten in getting to the start line for Dakar 2025 please reach out to her via the links below.

We hope you enjoy this episode!

In this episode we talk about Round 3 of the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship at the 2024 Xross Hard Enduro Rally in Serbia.

Spoiler alert! We have a new winner, with Manuel Lettenbichler unable to compete due to a knee injury the top step of the podium is open and waiting for a new and deserving rider to take their place. We see a change up not only with Wade Young taking 1st in the race but also moving up into 1st in the pro championship standings. Teodor and Micheal Walkner take 2nd and 3rd respectively. We can’t forget about our Juniors with the Brightmore brothers on the podium as well as James Moore. Lastly, Tjasa takes home the Women’s Hard Enduro Performance Award supported by 24MX.

This was a heated race not only in competition but also in temperature with over 30 Degrees in Serbia. Unlike our air conditioning system the riders didn’t give up and really gave a solid performance. We discuss prologue, race days 1,2 and 3 as well as have some exclusive interviews with your top 4 finishers of the race.

We hope you enjoy this episode!
