Lasarte-Oria Rural Kutxa BTT: A Sunday to Remember

Last Sunday, April 19th, we experienced a spectacular day of mountain biking. The weather was perfect, and the course was in excellent condition.
With some mud in places and technical sections that added a fun element, the circuit was enjoyed by all participants from start to finish.

We want to give a special mention to all of you for the respect you showed in the mountains. We found hardly any litter during the event, leaving wrappers and other waste in the hands of the volunteers. This exemplary behavior demonstrates, once again, the great atmosphere of this event. Thank you!

And of course, a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who made it possible: participants, sponsors, collaborators, tireless volunteers, medical staff, and the Lasarte-Oria Town Hall. It wouldn't have been possible without you!

Here are the links to photos and a video summary of this year's race. We'll continue posting more albums on our Facebook page: BTT Lasarte Oria

ONCE AGAIN, THANK YOU AND SEE YOU IN 2027!

Pamplona thrills with the debut of the FIM Freestyle World Cup in a sold-out Navarra Arena

The Navarra Arena experienced a historic night this Saturday with the staging of the opening round of the FIM Freestyle World Cup, the new official Freestyle Motocross World Cup sanctioned by the FIM, in a venue that was completely sold out and delivered
an electric atmosphere from the very first jump.

The competition brought together 8 riders from 7 different nationalities, several of the best and most decorated freestyle motocross athletes in the world, delivering a unique level of jumps that had the Pamplona crowd on its feet. After an intense final, victory
went to French rider David Rinaldo, joined on the podium by Galician rider José Canosa “Mincha” and Australian Rob Adelberg, in a contest defined by tight margins andspectacular tricks.

The final was also marked by crashes involving Italian rider Davide Rossi and one of the main pre-event favorites, Maikel Melero, which ruled them out of podium contention. Fortunately, both riders escaped without any injuries.
Beyond the competition itself, the event was a true show, combining world-class Freestyle Motocross with an impressive production of lighting, sound and fire effects, transforming the Navarra Arena into a major indoor FMX stage and keeping the crowd
on its feet throughout the night.

One of the most emotional moments of the evening came with a tribute to young riders and female motorcyclists, who entered the arena with their bikes to receive a warm ovation from the audience. This symbolic initiative highlighted the championship’s
commitment to promoting motorcycling among children and encouraging female participation in the sport.

The FIM Freestyle World Cup gets off to a spectacular start in Pamplona, firmly establishing the city as an international reference point for Freestyle Motocross and setting the tone for a championship that will travel across different continents throughout
the season.

The next round of the FIM Freestyle World Cup will take place on February 20 in San José (Costa Rica), the second stop of this global championship.

The international industry conference for the energy transition brought together the most important renewable energy players in Spain, along with a significant percentage of international attendees, in Baluarte (Pamplona).

This biennial event will bring together the wind, solar, storage, and green hydrogen industries to assess the current situation and discuss the impact of the new regulatory framework and emerging technologies on the renewable energy industry and the energy transition.

POLE POSITION WITH A RECORD, VICTORY, AND FASTEST RACE LAP. THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM HAS GIVEN ITS RIVALS NO CHANCE.

Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya (Montmeló), July 6, 2025. The 2025 Moto Barcelona-Catalunya Martimotos 24 Hours has chosen the winner of the 30th edition. Team Bolliger Switzerland has made a name for itself in the history of the endurance event with its first victory, a triumph that was, moreover, absolutely incontestable.

The team made up of Álex Toledo, Nico Thöni, and Pedro Nuno had a triumphant race, achieving achievements such as pole position in timed practice (with a record lap for the event), overall victory, victory in the Endurance World Championship (EWC) category, and a fastest race lap.

Their performance was fascinating, playing the role of a professional endurance team. The Swiss team led from start to finish with just three riders, except for the first lap, when Kawasaki Català Aclam (Xavier Artigas, Julien Pilot, Gabriel Pons, Daniel Sáez) momentarily snatched the lead.

It was only for a moment, because the Molins de Rei team, which started second, began experiencing unexpected events before any other team. On the second lap, Xavier Artigas was trying to avoid a crash in the gravel due to a broken rear wheel tensioner. His imminent return to the pits for necessary repairs meant they returned to the track in last place.

Despite having ridden so little, five teams were already out of contention due to a multiple crash caused by an engine failure in PitLane Endurance 86, the third-place finisher at the time. In this situation, FR Moto (Pedro Rodríguez, Daijiro Sako, Doriano Vietti, Daniel González) made their way into second place, chasing Team Bolliger Switzerland.

With Kawasaki Català Aclam beginning its unique comeback and PitLane Endurance 86 out of the running, Box69Racing – Marvea found its way into third place. The Sabadell-based team was comfortable in that position, with great pace from its riders Christian Palomares, Félix Rodríguez, Marc Miralles, and Luis Miguel Verdugo. The first four hours of competition seemed to predict a podium finish for them, but shortly after 4 p.m. everything would change.

Mirailles crashed at Turn 14 of the track, an incident that left his Kawasaki ZX10R significantly damaged. After a few intense minutes of repairs, the Open Superbike squad returned to the track to begin their climb. That mission, however, was not completed when Palomares confirmed that his engine had broken down. A few hours later, Box69Racing – Marvea officially withdrew.

As night fell, Kawasaki Català Aclam reached the provisional podium, closely chasing FR Moto, which had a slightly slower pace. From midnight onwards, both teams were engaged in a fierce battle for second place, which ultimately benefited the nine-time 24H champion. Kawasaki Català Aclam consolidated its silver medal around 5 a.m.

Team Bolliger Switzerland was therefore joined on the overall podium by Kawasaki Català Aclam and FR Moto, a podium finish that was identical to that of the EWC category.
In fourth place overall and first in O-SBK, Team 36 Institut Castellarnau (Iván Romero, Marc Guillamet, Gastón Garcia, Jordi Pocorull). The training project took over from Box69Racing – Marvea after its withdrawal, and has not relinquished its lead in the category. A spectacular result for the Sabadell team, made up of 55 students and 12 teachers.

Continuing with the winners of this 30th edition, we can highlight SRTeam 3CMotos and Moto Pneumàtic BCN Endurance, who finished second and third in the Open Superbike category, as well as JN Compétition, KFERT, and Team Grip Attack, who took home the prizes in the Superstock 1000 category in that same order. Basomba Racing, GMP Racing, and Martimotos were invited to the podium in the 600 category.

More fun than ever

This year, the legendary endurance race became a festival of fun. The paddock area was the epicenter, with various entertainment options.

Fans could find a commercial area run by Martimotos, as well as a Yamaha chill-out area, from start to finish. On Saturday afternoon, those in attendance were also treated to a trial exhibition with Arnau Farré and a freestyle exhibition with Jose Mincha and Maikel Melero, as well as a screening of the feature film Raül Torras: Man of Man.
