KTM EnduroCross Experience Back for 2012
First 20 amateur class entries get instruction from the factory KTM team in Denver and Boise

Irvine, CA (July 24, 2012) – Do you want to get riding tips from the Factory KTM EnduroCross Riders? Last year, KTM introduced the KTM EnduroCross Experience and Taddy Blazusiak and Mike Brown provided hands on lessons for amateur riders on how to tackle the gnarly obstacles that make up a typical GEICO EnduroCross course. For both the Denver, Colorado and Boise, Idaho events, the first 20 KTM riders to enter the amateur classes will receive a FREE one hour riding session courtesy of KTM on the Friday before the race.

“Watching Mike Brown and Taddy Blazusiak break down each section of the track for the KTM riders was really cool” stated Lance Bryson, Director of Sales and Marketing for EnduroCross. “The feedback from the riders that participated last year was amazing so we really want to thank KTM for offering this up at two new cities for 2012” Bryson continued.
