Classes and race numbers
Pick the right class for your riding. Classes are split by ability, then by age, so you race people at your level.

The elite class for the fastest, most experienced hard enduro riders.
- Race numbers 1–99
- Age groups 16–34, 35–49, 50 & over
Silver
For skilled riders with competitive hard enduro experience.
- Race numbers 100–499

Bronze
Grassroots racing for newer and developing riders. The best place to start.

Women's
A dedicated women's championship that runs on a hierarchy system, giving more women a chance to race and score.
Juniors (13–16)
Juniors prologue and race with the Bronze class at national rounds, and are scored separately.
Minimum numbers
Each age class needs at least 8 riders (Women's excluded). If a class can't be formed, its riders race in the age class below. In Gold, the overall class decides results if an age class can't run.
Not sure where you fit?
If you're new to hard enduro, start in Bronze. If you've been on the podium in Bronze or ride at a state level in other off-road disciplines, talk to us about Silver. Full rules are in the AMCA Hard Enduro Governing Rules.
