Highlights

The second day of racing at the 2025 International Six Days Enduro (ISDE) in Bergamo, Italy saw big changes at the top of the leaderboard as Italy claimed the overall lead in the World Trophy category, while Team USA tightened their grip on the Women’s Trophy with another dominant performance.

Italy Moves Ahead in World Trophy

Covering 173 km through Val Cavalina and Valpio, riders faced rougher and drier conditions than Day 1. Italy capitalized on the terrain, finishing the day almost two minutes clear of France.

  • Andrea Verona delivered consistent speed, finishing just 12 seconds behind Josep Garcia in scratch and moving into second overall individually.

  • Samuel Bernardini recovered from an early crash to put in strong times, especially on the Palosco Cross Test.

France slipped to fourth on Day 2, nearly two minutes down overall after several costly mistakes. Sweden impressed with second place on the day, closing the gap to France in the standings, while Australia climbed to fifth overall.

Scratch Battle: Garcia Still on Top

Josep Garcia continues to lead overall times, but Verona and Kevin Cristino are applying pressure.

Junior Trophy: Italy Holds, Australia Attacks

Italy keeps the Junior lead, but Australia is now just 37 seconds back thanks to Kyron Bacon’s standout performance (third overall scratch time). France struggled and now faces pressure from Team USA for the final podium spot.

Women’s Trophy: USA Dominant, France Eyes Second

Team USA extended their advantage to over 16 minutes as Brandy Richards added another 26 seconds to her scratch lead. France remains second overall, with Australia dropping to third after Madison Healey lost over five minutes stuck in the second test.
