KTM Factory rider Taddy Blasuziak of Poland put in a superb start-to-finish race on Saturday to take victory in the Hell's Gate Extreme Enduro event in Il Ciocco, in Italy's northern Tuscany.
The fourth edition Hell’s Gate enduro recently took pace at the Il Ciocco tourist centre in the heart of the Tuscan Apennine mountains, where close to 80 riders gathered to take up the challenge of competing in one of Europe’s most demanding events. With a select group of Europe’s best extreme enduro riders among those competing the absence of KTM’s three-time event winner David Knight meant that in ’07 a new name would top the event.
Reigning Enduro 3 world champion, KTM’s David Knight, once again showed the world that, when the tough gets going he gets tough! Riding his 300cc KTM, David conquered the physically demanding Hell’s Gate race once more, winning himself 8’000 Euros after having the power and stamina to make it to the very top of Hell’s peak.
