ENDURO
Enduro consists of many different obstacles and challenges where riders race against the clock in a cross-country off-road course.
​
In this event, riders leave at intervals, and each interval starts at a certain minute. The objective of the event is to reach pre-defined checkpoints and eventually across the finish line at the fastest time possible.
​
These events are usually held in remote locations such as valleys and hills, offering a quite challenging course which is not for the faint-hearted !
TRIALS
Trials is a non-speed event carried out on specialized motorbikes where highly trained riders must ride through an obstacle course while attempting to avoid touching the ground with the feet. The obstacles found within the course may be of natural or constructed elements, carefully designed to test the skills of each rider. Throughout the course, observers count how many times each competitor touches the ground with the foot (or any part of the body). A penalty point is received for each time a competitor touches the ground. The rider with the least amount of penalty points is declared the winner.
FLAT TRACK RACING
Flat-track racing is when riders are required to compete around a flat race track with rough terrain. This type of racing is all about finesse, commitment, aggression, and timing. Throughout the season, the association organizes various flat track racing competitions, open for all riders.
SATURDAY NIGHT MX
Every year, the Gozo Motocross Associations organizes an evening event bringing together motocross and autocross. The event is held at the Gozo Horse Racetrack where a custom-built track for both motocross and autocross is constructed in the central area of the site. The track is artificially lit with floodlighting, ensuring adequate lighting throughout the track. The event hosts multiple heats of flat track racing and autocross split into different classes.
X-TREME TRIALS & ENDUROCROSS

The event also features a constructed course, designed to test the balancing and powerful skills of trial motorbike riders.
