Europe's Largest Indoor Dirtbike Track Opens in Southern Estonia (http://news.err.ee/sports/f8617f84-d442-491a-8cd8-f6670718d935)
October 30 marks the opening of Europe's largest indoor motocross track, the Adrenalin Arena motocross hall in Sõmerpalu, which is just outside the southern Estonian town of Võru.
Sõmerpalu village motoclub has for years organized Estonia's most renowned dirtbike contests, functioning as a springboard for internationals and making history at the Cross of Nations. Now the club completed its long-time dream project - building an indoor track that makes dependence on weather conditions a thing of the past, reported sport.err.ee (http://muuda.err.ee/sisu/9/en-us/f8617f84-d442-491a-8cd8-f6670718d935/1).
According to club spokesman Kaido Park, Adrenalin Arena provides dirtbikers with excellent year-round training and racing conditions that sportsmen in these latitudes were badly missing due to the long winters.
The arena is equipped with a world-standard supercross track, a recreational zone and a museum.
The opening night will feature freestyle riders and racers from the Baltics and Finland, as well as a concert by the United Estonian Bikers Choir, accompanied by the legendary local punk rock band Propeller.
