The 99th edition of the FIM International Six Days of Enduro (ISDE) will be staged in Italy and is planned for August 24-29, 2025.
After making its debut in 1913, the Six Days was hosted by Italy for the first time in 1931 in Merano and most recently in Lombardy in 2021. The 2025 event will be the third time the historic Bergamo Moto Club has organized the competition following editions at San Pellegrino in 1968 and 1986.
“The Bergamo Moto Club is proud and above all honored to have been selected by the FIM to organize the 2025 FIM ISDE,” Moto Club Bergamo President Giuliano Piccinini said. “It will certainly be a demanding undertaking in all respects, but it will be done with passion and I would like to thank FIM President Jorge Viegas and FMI President Giovanni Copioli for giving us this opportunity.”
“Four years after the fantastic Italian Trophy and Junior Trophy win in Rivanazzano Terme, the FIM ISDE will be back in Italy in 2025 in Bergamo, where Enduro is one of the most loved and followed sports,” Federazione Motociclistica Italiana (FMI) President Giovanni Copioli said. “Here, as in many other areas of our country, we can feel the passion and culture of motorcycling. I want to thank the FIM for the trust shown in the Italian Motorcycle Federation and in the Bergamo Moto Club which, I am sure, will organize an event that lives up to expectations.”
“Italy has enjoyed such a long association with the sport that can be traced back to the very early days of the FIM International Six Days of Enduro,” said FIM President Jorge Viegas. “I am confident that this rich history along with the passion Italy as a nation so obviously holds for Enduro will result in a very successful, professionally-run event and I am very much looking forward to it.”
The biggest event on the global Enduro calendar, 600 professional and amateur riders from upward of 30 nations spread across six continents are expected to contest the 2025 International Six Days Enduro with the major prizes up for grabs in the World Trophy, Women’s World Trophy and Junior World Trophy categories.
The headquarters for the 2025 event will be based in the city of Bergamo, which is around 35 miles from Milan. CN
