Burson, Roeseler Podium at VCMC Rawhide Enduro

September 21, 2011 - Corona, CA - Over
50 miles of fresh cut single-track trail
was made even more epic by Mother Nature, who was kind enough to dump a
few thunderstorms on Anza, California the week before the VCMC Rawhide
Enduro, and Husqvarna riders Nick Burson and Larry Roeseler were there
to reap the rewards of
the day! Burson took the overall win at the Qualifier-style enduro held
at The Ranch MX Park on September 18, and Roeseler rounded out the
podium in third.



"Especially because of the rain, it was awesome, awesome single track,"
Roeseler commented, who had nothing but praise for the course. "Erek
Kudla did an awesome job with the trail. It was like going to Tecate...
without
going to Tecate."



Burson admitted it took him a while to get going on the technical
course, but from the second test on, the Zip-Ty Racing Husqvarna rider
bested the stacked field of riders, which included 10-time Baja champion
Roeseler. "I was riding
really good and didn't make any mistakes all day," Burson commented. "I
ended up putting time on everyone. All the fast guys were together, and
we all compared cards at the end of each test so I knew I'd beat them."



Fellow Husqvarna rider and 10-time Baja champion Roeseler was among "the
fast guys" at the event. "It was fun to be able to ride with him,"
Burson said of Roeseler. "I grew up watching him as a kid, and he's
still
riding really good. But I knew I couldn't let him beat me because I'd
never be able to live it down from Ty [Davis]!"



While Burson was aboard his Zip-Ty Racing TXC511, Roeseler was racing
his TE310 dual sport, which, aside from a handlebar and suspension, was
in box-stock condition.



"That 310 was the magic weapon for that race," Roeseler said. "It's got
plenty of power, it corners fantastic, it's light and nimble feeling on
the trail. I was able to throttle it all day. It was just really, really
fun to
ride and the results showed."

Zip-Ty Husqvarna's Nick Burson took the overall win at the inaugural VCMC Rawhide Enduro.
