Lembah Hitam an extreme challenge at South Kalimantan's Uncle Hard Enduro

Kiram Park, Banjar, S Kalimant (ANTARA) - A hill named as Lembah Hitam or Black Valley is an extreme challenge that must be conquered by participants in the international dirt bike championship "Uncle Hard Enduro" at Kiram Park, Banjar District, South Kalimantan, 25-27 November 2022.

"Two hills that are a challenge for international-class riders, namely Bukit Perahu (Boat Hill) and a hill that is called the Black Valley," said Chairman of the 2022 South Kalimantan's Uncle Hard Enduro Committee, Waluyo here Thursday.

If Bukit Perahu is only about 1 kilometer of the track, but Lembah Hitam is about 6 kilometers long.

"From below the terrain looks normal, it actually has extraordinary tough challenges," he said.

He ensured that riders would not easily conquer the track in the Black Valley at high speed, because it not only has a fairly high incline, but many bends plus rocks as part of the obstacles.

"The riders must feel the sensation of the Black Valley hill," said Waluyo.

"That's why he called this championship Uncle Hard Enduro, because Uncle Birin is an icon, as well as former dirt bike world champion Graham Jarvis," said Waluyo.
