The International Six Days Enduro (ISED), formerly known as International Six Days Trial (ISDT), is the oldest "off-road" motorcycle event on the FIM calendar.
This annual competition is the oldest and longest on the calendar. The first event was held in 1913 at Carlisle in England.
Since then, this competition has taken place every year in different places around the world, apart from the two world wars.
This 96th edition brought together many teams, the pilots had the honor of defending the colors of their country. The goal then was to put riders and machines through the elements through motorcycle reliability tests and open road speed tests. The motorcycles had to be manufactured in each team's country.
During the ISDE, for all six days and over 1200 miles, riders have to contend with strict rules on time allowances, restrictions on mechanical replacements.
Over the years, the enthusiasm of the pilots has never wavered. For this 96th edition, more than 500 participants came from 32 countries and thousands of spectators. Each year, this competition has a significant economic impact on the region hosting the ISDE.
In 1964, actor Steve Mac Queen and his friends Bud Ekins and Dave Ekins were part of Team USA on Triumph TR6 Trophy 650.
In 1981, the ISDT become the ISDE, marking major changes.
