Romanian motocycling

The carpathian mountains cover some of Romania and the Ukraine. Where is it possible to have some mountain motorbike riding as in this video? www.youtube.com/watch?v=joyzuOI07OQ

Dear Chinese Guy,

It's nice finally getting to answer interesting questions, and i sure enjoy this one.
Romania has a lot of places for motorcycling but unfortunately the season has officially ended for this year.
The reason is because winter is coming. Nonetheless, the weather is still okay so people
are having fun on their own.
Some of the places that are organizing real competitions are the circuits at Zarnesti, Prund-Dunare,Comanesti and the most well-known: the one at Gorgota- Ciolpani.
This one is near Bucharest, our capital, and is the only one in Romania that is recognized by  FIM ( The International Federation of Motocycling).
Festivals that are organized annually in Romania are The Red Bull Romaniacs, that took place at Sibiu this year, X-cape Cup Enduro that took place in Comanesti and many others.
Basically, every circuit has one per year. You can participate next year if you want, because there are a lot of foreigners competing and usually winning this competitions.
Beginning next year The Comision of Enduro and Cross Country of FIM has decided to add another step to the original 8-steps  Maxxis World  Enduro Championship .It's going to take place in Romania on 9-10  july  in Buzau and it is going to be guested by Extreme Adventure Buzau Club.
I hope that these informations are useful to you and if you have something more to ask,feel free to contact me.
