Another year of the finest racing in the South West has come to a close - here's the roundup.
It was another wet one but the stoke was turned up to 11.
And big changes are ahead for the event in 2024
The Merida EX Enduro has become a staple event on the UK's enduro calendar. Despite plans to evolve into an e-MTB-only event, the organisers will continue to cater for traditional mountain bikes, too, in what has been described as a gruelling but rewarding three-day enduro event.

2023's iteration of the EX Enduro was one for the books and probably it's wettest to date. But today, the organisers of what could be the UK's finest enduro event have announced that it's back for 2024 and, this time, it'll take place slightly earlier in the year on the 6-8 September, perhaps to avoid a repeat of last year.
In last year's announcement of the 2023 EX Enduro, the guys in charge of the event hinted at plans that 2024's event would be an e-MTB-only race, shelving the mixed bike format. However, after an impressive demand, and despite the filthy weather of last year's race, the Merida EX Enduro will once again cater for both e-MTB and analogue bikes.

The EX Enduro will host 80 riders to race 20 timed stages over 100km of the best riding that the South West has to offer. And as what's now a popular standard, there will also be Exposure Lights night stages. With those included the event will take place over three days.
This event is seen as a competitive getaway or an at-home riding holiday as the entry fee includes meals, feed stations, showers and an all-inclusive bar. Plus, we're promised that there will be a few extras in store.
If you're up for one of the best riding weekends that the UK has to offer, pre-registration is available now and tickets will go live on the 3 March at 9am.
