Launch into action as the Eastern Kingdoms Cup sweeps across Azeroth! From August 26 to September 9, new and veteran riders can race through fourteen thrilling courses, and take on challenges in Normal, Advanced, and Reverse modes—each offering excitement and a test of skill. Begin your quest with Lord Andestrasz to dive into the aerial action!
This looks promising and pretty exciting.🩷
This is just an old cup returning. They need to do Pandaria next.
I never did this one, so it’s new to me. lol
I am always just subpar in these, getting gold in normal only, lol.
I haven’t done a single skyriding race in TWW, I should get on that for at least a few achievs, I guess.
I might the EK races again to get the new transmog, or not, we’ll see. 
More for those who love this stuff. For me though? Just gonna stay out of your way thanks!
The world quest races give ~160g each, so they’re a quick way to get some easy gold.
Why is there such a long wait between cups
Northrend one isn’t until late 2026 
That was a crumb of gold about a decade ago.
Any new rewards or can I just ignore this?
New mogs? I’m in!
Hold on to your hats racing fans!
woohoo!!! I get to crash and burn with an audience maybe… count me in, my internal gyrometer always points to their nearest tree branch
I really like when these come around and it’s awesome of you guys to make new rewards!
However, I tried a few and I’m not earning the Riders Badge currency for each race. I did the races when they were first introduced and earned them then, but this time it seems they’re not being awarded.
I know you can earn them on alts otherwise, but is it intended that you can’t earn them more than once per character forever, and not once per yearly event?
I missed out on the first time this one came around, will do most if not all the races now.
I still have some leftover rider’s tokens from the Kalimdor Cup.
Gotta get those rider’s helmets.
Same! Or at least I don’t think I’ve done it. 
Logged in. Bought the new mogs with currency from previous events. Feels good not having to grind this out yet again
Looks great!
I was looking forward to this. But I was disappointed to find that I’m not earning the currency on my main character.
The last Eastern Kingdoms Cup was two years ago, and it wasn’t cool to know that even after all this time I can’t collect the currency on the character I like to use for these events.
These mogs are very nice—would love to see more stuff like this, with you guys finding lil mini-game activities for us to earn unused recolors of models from previous expansions! There are so many!
Overall, I enjoy these races. It’s a nice little tour through the old world, and I’ve seen a few sights I wouldn’t have otherwise.
What’s with the PvP flag not going away? I was flagged for PvP the entire time I went through the races.
(I also polymorphed a random Alliance player after I completed the cup and disappeared.)
I was surprised when I logged in that I could basically buy up everything with the coins I didn’t use. It’s nice that we can do that.
