Strong local off road community looking forward to the action
Irvine, CA (October 10, 2011) – Idaho off
road motorcycle enthusiasts are gearing up for the first ever GEICO AMA
EnduroCross event presented by Lucas Oil to visit their state. The
region is known to be one of the best off road riding areas in the world
and therefore has a strong contingent of motorcyclist that love to ride
the challenging trails that EnduroCross replicates inside an arena. The
Idaho Center, located less than 20 miles west of Boise in the city of
Nampa is famous for the annual Snake River Stampede rodeo and will be a
great venue to watch EnduroCross riders try to tame their bucking
motorcycles.
“Idaho
has a great motorcycle community and several of the companies that have
backed EnduroCross over the years are located in the area including
Rekluse clutches, Pro Moto Billet/Fastway, Scott USA and Acerbis so they
have all helped make this event happen” said a very excited Lance
Bryson, the Director of Marketing and Sales for EnduroCross. “And when
we contacted the local dealers, they all knew we were coming and wanted
to get involved as well so we have Carl’s Cycle Sales, Grizzly
Motorsports, Moto Tech and Birds of Prey that are helping to sell
tickets and spread the word”.
For
all EnduroCross events, the pit area is open for free all day so it is
great opportunity to meet the top riders up close to get autographs and
check out their bikes. The arena is also open for free during the
daytime qualifiers that get started at 10:00 am as well as for the
Expert practice and qualifying laps that take place during the
midafternoon. So it is certainly worth coming out early for a full day
of action.
Tickets available at Carl’s Cycle Sales, Grizzly Motorsports, Moto Tech, Birds of Prey, ICtickets and www.EnduroCross.com.
