The Erzbergrodeo has more than 1300 participants this year. The difference between professional factory teams and hobby riders is huge. A tour of the paddock including the latest pictures from the mega event.

It immediately catches the eye of every fan: the orange, blue and red truck and tent city of the KTM Group on the edge of the Erzbergrodeo arena. Four factory riders and a handful of factory-supported athletes want for nothing between the improvised pits and hospitalities. 25 employees ensure that everything runs smoothly and that the race bikes are perfectly prepared.
