In order to implement a successful running of the NOCO FIM 6DAYS®, FIM Ride Green policies are in place to minimise the environmental impact and carbon footprint of the event in Galicia, Spain.

Throughout the paddock and the NOCO Parc Fermé in Silleda, it is easy to see the FIM Ride Green in action.

All five-hundred-and-forty plus competitors competing first undergo strict technical inspection of machinery.

FIM motorcycle sound measurement specialists perform technical inspections on all participant’s motorcycles, including decibel measurements, using advanced equipment and measurement methods. The aim is to minimise the sound level to wildlife and the communities living in Galicia.

All competitors must also use a protective mat under their motorcycle to avoid any soil contamination where possible when undergoing maintenance and refuelling each day.

Throughout the paddock, designated waste disposal areas are clearly marked for waste oil, tyres, food and rubbish, which are later separated and carefully disposed of.

However, protecting the biodiversity of a region like Galicia is of the utmost importance to the NOCO FIM 6DAYS®.

For this, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) was conducted by a national licensed biologist registered with the National Register of Biologists in Galicia. All possible short, medium and long-term impacts were identified, and the event then planned appropriately.

Special measures are in place to ensure safe passage through areas of the Natura 2000 Network in Galicia, while post-event, the organisation is committed to restoring altered soils.

All unavoidable emissions (scope 1), calculated by the FIM C02 calculator and other tools, will be offset by the planting of native species during the correct time of planting by the local organisation.

With this year’s event marking the ninety-eighth edition of the FIM International Six Days of Enduro (ISDE), these proactive FIM Ride Green measures are crucial to preserving the future of the longest-running off-road event on the FIM calendar.
