19-year-old Cruse, really made her mark in women’s pro racing last season with a WMA national win at Thunder Valley, Lakewood, CO and with her silver medal performance at the first ever women’s Moto X race at the ESPN X Games, which aired live on ABC. Sherri will be racing for AXO in 2009 at the top women’s professional motocross and off-road events including the WMA Cup, the eight-stop AMA/WMA National Motocross Championship, the X Games, and select WORCS races.

It made great sense to add rising star Sherri Cruse to the AXO Family” said John Simanovich AXO’s Director of Motorsport “We look forward to her input on our product both for the needs of a hardcore rider and in the future for needs of women riders specifically.”

“I am really happy to be representing AXO. They have done some innovative things with gear for 2009 and I’m looking forward to getting them on the podium “said Cruse
