Everts and Desalle in Tanel Leok & Friends!
The second edition of Tanel Leok & Friends, on October 9, promises to be a historic day for Estonian Motocross! Inspired by 'The Legend' himself, Tanel has been organizing a competition for charity since last year. The first race was an immediate success. However, for this edition, Tanel and his organizational team are pulling out all the stops! None other than ten-time world champion Stefan Everts will be the main attraction of Tanel Leok & Friends. For Everts it will be his first race in the Baltic states.
Tanel Leok: “Motorcross fans in Belgium and the Netherlands have seen Stefan Everts at work so often that it is normal. (laughs) Except after his career, of course. This is of course a very special event for Estonian supporters. Because I have often been at the start of Stefan's charity race, it was easier to convince him! I had already discussed it with him several times throughout the year and he was very keen to come and ride in Estonia. The proceeds from our organization go to children who have become paralyzed in one way or another after an accident. Not necessarily because of motocross. We want to help them make everyday things easier.”
The KTM MX Racing director is not the only Belgian Motocross star as Clément Desalle will also make an appearance at the Kose circuit. Tanel's LS Motors-Honda teammate Davide Guarneri and Harri Kullas will also be in action. Of course, the other Estonian top riders such as Juss Laansoo and Gert Krestinov will also come to support the 'Estonian Express'. More about this cool fun race later.
