Wagenranch Birkfeld

The Wagenranch lies in Strallegg near Birkfeld in eastern Styria; Monika Stranz is named as the operator of the facility. The track directory CrossNews lists training on Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, each from 9:00 to 12:00 and from 14:00 to 18:00. The venue is best known for its four-hour team race: at the 17th running, according to a report by MeinBezirk, over 100 riders took turns over four hours, split into a licensed class and a hobby class. The winning licensed team, Euromotors Graz, completed 156 laps, while Team Wagenranch took the hobby class with 147 laps. A report by Enduro Austria from May 2020 additionally mentions registration by email and a limit of 15 riders per morning and afternoon session; whether that restriction still applies today is not publicly documented. Track length and surface are not publicly documented either - our record holds a mixed surface at around 680 metres of altitude. How the ground actually rides cannot be derived responsibly from the available sources: neither surface nor track length is recorded anywhere, and a four-hour race says more about team endurance than about the grip under the rear wheel. What is clearly defined is the operation: riding happens in fixed blocks on three days of the week, and at least once the number of riders per block was capped. So before you travel, check directly with the operator whether your session is open and whether registration is required.
