After a superb victory at the inaugural round of the indoor trials season in Marseilles, Albert Cabestany finishes the 2010 Indoor Trials Championship in second place overall riding his new Sherco 2.9.
 
Interview with Albert Cabestany: You have now completed the 2010 World Indoor Trials Championship competition, with a second place finish, what would you like to say to the fans?
“Yesterday I rode the last round of the 2010 World Indoor Championship in Palma de Mallorca. I above all want to stop and congratulate Toni Bou for his 4th Indoor World Championship. The truth is that I’m really happy with the end result, despite not winning the World Championship. I am happy because I had the opportunity to win the championship up until the last minute, happy because the rider who won the championship is the best trials rider I have ever known. I have to compliment the entire Sherco team because of their efforts; they gave me everything that I needed to be able to win the championship.
Thanks to Lluis Gallach and my father, for the work that they do day after day to get me in shape to compete. Thanks to Paxau and Pere for their work on the bike. I want to also thank Melcior Estorch for his willing help and the confidence he has placed in me. Thanks to Albert and Joan Javierre Fontseré for always seeking the best for me. In addition I want to thank Ernest Canete and Montse my trainer who keeps me 100% physically fit. And a special thank you to my wife and my daughter Yolanda who create a warm home environment for me, it is nice to not have to worry about any domestic issues and be able to fully concentrate on the trial when necessary. And thanks to all of my family, my friends and my fans who stand behind me when things are going well and when they do not go so well. And thanks to all the fans who follow me on my webpage and encourage me every week. Without a doubt, without all of you this would not be a reality.
Thank you very much!”

NEW ENDURO RIDER
SHERCO Strengthens Its Presence In Enduro Competition
 
 
 
Shercos presence in enduro competitions has been strengthened with the addition of Daniel Gilbert (13-8-87) to the team; he will be leading the team in the Spanish Enduro Championship.
The young man from Santa Margarida (Barcelona) had his enduro debut in 2008. He had a splendid career in the world of trials, in which he won several championships in Catalonia and was a strong protagonist at the Nationals. Daniel had his greatest success in 2004 when he won the FIM 125 Youth Cup; he also won the Junior World Championship in 2006 and the European Championship in 2007.

Despite his success in trials, Gilbert choose to make the leap into the world of enduro and premiered at the Cross Country of Solsona, which was valid for the specialty in 2008. After a very short adjustment period he won his first race in 2009, and became the Spanish Cross Country Champion in class “B”. Utilizing the skills he learned competing in trials competitions, such as the ability to circumvent all sorts of obstacles, he managed to excel in extreme tests, winning the victory in the Extreme GORDEXOLA (Basque Country) and finishing fourth in the Extrema Basque. His steady progression has led him to 2010 where he was the second best Spanish rider in the recently completed round of the Indoor World Championship, where he earned a creditable fifth place finish. His debut with Team Sherco came at the famous circuit point test known as “Hell’s Gate”, he placed tenth in the first stage but was forced to retire the second day.

Sherco has chosen Daniel Gilbert to race the 2010 enduro season on the new SE300i, he will race the national enduros in the E2 class and will also race the World Indoor and other Extreme races.
