A new winter sports discipline is born: Snow Speedhill.
Held for the first time on March 4th in Götschen, the "Flying Finn" Simo Kirssi once again demonstrated his top-class ability and became "Snow Speedhill King" on his HP2 Enduro.
Chris Pfeiffer, BMW Motorrad´s second company motorcyclist, also made the final and finished sixth.
The enthusiastic crowd was offered a unique motorcycling spectacle. 60 entrants lined up for the start - not just to climb an 800-metre snow slope but also to beat their opponents in doing so. Of course, not everyone could be king, but they all received the applause of the masses.
Due to the great success of the event, biker friends and winter athletes can look forward to a Snow Speedhill again next year.
We will then see if His Majesty Simo I. can defend his crown!
