Over the years, rules of the ISDE have evolved, but the event always uses an enduro-type format. RIders are to follow a set route at a set place over six days. Additionally, there are strict controls on when a rider may work on his or her machine and the availability of tools and spare parts. Competitors almost always ride more than 1,000 miles in total.

The World Trophy champion is determined by totaling the times of each team’s three fastest riders for each of the event’s six days, which includes time penalties. The team who has the lowest combined time will be the winner. The USA has successfully won the World Trophy a total of three times. For the Junior World Trophy, Women’s World Cup and Club divisions, the champion is determined by totaling each three-rider team’s times for each, also including time penalties. The team with the lowest combined time is crowned the class champion.
