2. International six-day trip

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 2nd International Six Days Enduro was held in August 1920 in the French Grenoble instead.

The First World War initially prevented the International Six-Day Tour, which was first held in 1913, from being held again . According to a decision made before the war, the implementation of the second edition of the competition was awarded to France.

23 drivers registered for the competition, but only 15 drivers started. 14 riders were rated at the finish, 12 of them were on motorcycles. In the sidecar class, the Swiss Eduoard Gex drove with his wife as a passenger. In the cyclecar class, Sandford competed with a Morgan tricycle .

The Swiss team won ahead of the British.
