Cycle News Staff | July 29, 2015
SRT has built up a huge team of top off-road motorcycle racers over the past few years and also backs some of the major off-road race events, including the AMA National Hare & Hound series. For 2015, the team consist of 24 riders from seven states. A few weeks back, they got 22 of those riders together for a three day intra-squad competition held at the Salinas Ramblers MC compound outside of Coalinga, California.
The Challenge was made up of 8 total competitions: Enduro Test 1, Hill climb, Enduro Test 2, EnduroCross lap, Four lap Hare Scramble, Circle Rut, TT Track (2 laps), and a third and final Enduro test. Each test was timed and the rider got the number of their place (1st=1, 2nd=2. Etc.). The lowest total of all the events is the Team SRT Challenge Champion. This year’s Champ was Cory Graffunder, who edged out Last Year’s Champ Mark Heresco Jr. and Team SRT Rookie Mike McGinnis.
Beau Cottington was on hand to capture the event on film so check out the highlights.
SRT would like to thank their team sponsors: 509, KENDA Tire, Fasst Company, O’Neal, Tube Saddle, Scorpion Helmet, Shorai Batteries, HBD Moto Grafx, Willson’s Motorcycles, Sidi Boots, Fastway, IMS, FLU Designs, DT1 Air Filters, Hammer Nutrition and Motorex.
