2022 Silver Kings Hard Enduro: SUPERHARD!

Superhard episode 4 is here, in your face, straight from the epic Silver Kings Hard Enduro in Idaho. And, we're happy to report Jesse and Lukas are reunited for the race, locked in a duel to dirt bike racing death! Sort of...
Claiming itself as the Premier "Big Mountain" Enduro in North America, the Silver Kings Hard Enduro is sure to be gnarly and it will push the top hard enduro pros to the limit.
But what about normal people? How do you think you'd fair in this crazy dirt bike race? Well, your favorite behind-the-scenes Hard Enduro VBI (Vlog By Idiots), is here to show you. Because, at the very least, we are somewhat normal people.
From last-minute bike prep and bike parades to pulling bikes and bodies up mountains, this one has it all. Enjoy, and don't forget to drop the winning phrase in the comments below for your chance to win a sweet prize for you and someone else!

Riding Buddy - Victoria Argyle! She doesn't know she is my savior but I followed her the last 10 miles of a Family Enduro at Fife Lake, Michigan. I kept telling myself, if she can continue so can I! Thanks Victoria, you are a true inspiration!

[@cyclenews]

Great story and insight into your riding buddy!

[@hesutton]

Riding buddy - Nathan Richey! Got to ride snowbikes with James and Matt at Inside Enduro! Was Epic!

[@InsideEnduro]

[@EddyLukas]

[@ushardenduro]

Another great video! Thank you again guys! 👏🏼👏🏼

[@cyclenews]

Keep the races coming!

[@EddyLukas]

Looking forward to the next race season already!!

[@dandimaio9289]

Riding Buddy... I want to learn how to launch my bike up the hill like Jesse!

[@EddyLukas]

He's gonna start teaching classes soon

[@cyclenews]

Hahaha. He's a bad influence

[@cyclenews]

@@EddyLukas but did he almost decapitate an incredibly nice gentleman when he did it? Did he?

[@steve_kamrad5216]

Absolutely stoked for this

[@goalsoflife9575]

RIDING BUDDY. For hard endruo, the definition of a riding buddy. A person That you go out into the environment with to embrace the suck and have a great time enjoying the sport you love. Ride on . Riding buddy tyler.

[@markmaloney6694]

Riding Buddy.. The Man, Lukas Eddy!!

[@cyclenews]

Please, no. ANYONE BUT HIM!!! 🤣

[@EddyLukas]

@@cyclenews if I win one of these prizes with Mark I'll give one to you

[@cyclenews]

The random comment picker picked your name, but since you know Lukas, we're going to disqualify you. You should pick better friends.

[@EddyLukas]

@@cyclenews no Mark is fine, it was his other comment that won! But yeah he shouldn't have picked me, that's for sure a bad decision no matter what.

[@1DIYGuy]

My Riding Buddy of many years Tim Wilson, (team meadow Muffin) who never left me stranded and I had to return the favor. Would always stop on the far side of a difficult section until I gave the index finger pointing down the course. His motto was always when you crash be sure your bike is on the other side of the obstacle. I think that became the motto of all Hard Enduro riders.

[@cyclenews]

Clearly throwing bikes up things and walking to them is a popular method of racing for our hosts - sometimes they throw them ON people, too. Sheesh... thanks for the comment!

[@AaronTapio]

Riding Buddy... Landon Kulla!!

[@travdirtbikejunkie]

My riding buddy is my wife Sara Redfield who has completely stepped up her game in the last couple years for riding hard enduro. She spent the last year training specifically for Silver Kings. She was running 3rd in womens pro but just barely missed making out of same hill Jesse was stuck on and timed out before making it to check 4.

[@cyclenews]

Nice.

[@byronstuck5381]

Love my riding buddy Rick Heath!!

[@KTMDanno]

Riding Buddy Destry Abbott ;-) Epic stuff as always Jesse and Lukas!

Thanks Joe! Nice work this year

[@davidmaynard1422]

My Riding Buddy Josh Randall would enjoy this video, and likes Klim products. Great job guys! I'm too old to ride an event like this, but both of you have provided me inspiration to take on some tough ADV routs.

[@cyclenews]

Both of these "young" bucks (not Jesse so much) are getting seriously beat by men and women older than them every weekend. Have fun on the ADV and make sure you take your Josh with you on anything tough! ADV bikes need buddies more than most!

[@bizomatic]

Riding buddy Tonow. His enthusiasm is infectious

F3 Carbon is so good!

[@racerrick39]

@@EddyLukas it really is. I'm a diehard Arai guy from my roadrace days, won't wear anything but on the street, but that F3 Carbon totally won me over. Side note, how do you strap your bike in your van? It just looks like it's pulled against the wall. Lol Thanks in advance

[@EddyLukas]

@@racerrick39 yup, I just have it leaned up against the wall. Two straps go from the left side footpeg up to the wall. Front tire is strapped in place with a rubber Voile strap so it doesn't rub the wall and make noise. It's faster and easier to load than a pickup truck!

[@racerrick39]
