Athletes of all levels can experience unforgettable riding experiences and celebrate the eMTB community at TweedLove’s Electric Weekend and the eMTB Enduro at Ard Rock
Bosch eBike Systems is excited to announce its continued support of flagship eMTB racing events in 2024. Building on its tradition of fostering eMTB racing excellence, Bosch will once again be the exclusive partner of TweedLove’s Electric Weekend, or E24 for short, which takes place in just one month’s time on 25-26 May. The brand will also be Ard Rock’s official eBike Systems Partner and sponsor of the eMTB Enduro on July 28.
Following the resounding success of its inaugural event in 2023, the unique twoday epic tailored exclusively to eMTB riders is poised to be the premium eMTB gathering in the UK for 2024. The course will challenge riders to manage their battery usage efficiently whilst traversing the exceptional trails of the Tweed Valley.
Participants will be encouraged to complete each day's course using a single battery, although an alternative race category accommodating those opting for an extra battery is also provided. Each race day will offer participants an on-course lunch, electronic timing with instant results and clear course markings. Additionally, participants receive support from medical personnel, marshals and the Bosch eBike Systems technical assistance team.
TweedLove’s Electric Weekend, supported by Bosch eBikes Systems, features a dynamic programme of activities. The event village will offer music and an outdoor cinema, as well as amenities including Bosch eBike Systems technical support, food & drink, and camping available for participants and families.
