Here´s what it takes to stage one of the world´s toughest and most prestigious Extreme Enduro events: an opening prologue held downtown, four days of racing through the forests of Transylvania, gnarly up- and gruesome downhills, fast rally-type sections and a wild climb up a five-floor inner city building. In brief, these are the ingredients of the Red Bull Romaniacs.

The victory went to BMW factory rider Andreas Lettenbichler, on his BMW 450 X, equipped with Akrapovic evolution exhaust.
