It's not just the pros who get between the tapes at an EWS, there's also two amateur races that are open to everyone with no pre-qualification requirements; the EWS100 and EWS80.
The EWS100 riders take in the same course as the pros the day before, while the EWS80 tackle a slightly shorter course with one or two less stages. We caught up with the EWS100 racers in Crans-Montana, Switzerland to find out what it's like to ride in one of these epic, technical and very challenging competitions.
