JARVIS FOURTH AT THE ERZBERG RODEO
30 May 2006 - Sherco

Graham Jarvis finishes “FOURTH” in the “Red Bull Hare Scramble” of the Erzberg Rodeo

Considered by many to be one of the hardest off-road races in the world, the “Red Bull Hare Scramble” is the premiere event of the famous “Erzberg Rodeo”, a complete weekend of different competitions in which extreme hardness is the common denominator, a race that typically presents a very hostile climate to the riders.

This was the setting for the latest exploit by Graham Jarvis on his Sherco 4.5i Enduro. Out of a 1,000 riders who entered, only 40 were capable of arriving at the finish line, and among those 40, was the recent winner of the Scottish Six Days. Graham crossed the finish line in fourth place which gives credence to the challenges of the Scottish. The torrential rain that fell for more than one hour during the race turned the course into an authentic hell of clay and rocks. Sherco holds the honor of being the first 4T motorcycle to cross the finish line. A very successful outing for Graham and Sherco, and even more so because Graham would probably have finished in second place had it not been for a run in with another rider very near the finish.
