The second to last round of the National Enduro was in Stanton, Alabama for the Gobbler Getter Enduro. The weather was sunny and the temperature was in the mid 60s. The terrain was sandy with some tree roots and clay. Rachel Gutish had an up and down round but she rode hard all day and won by roughly a minute, earning her the top spot on the podium. Cody Barnes kept his championship hopes alive by coming in 1st place for Round 8. He was a few seconds behind the leaders after the first three tests but then Cody went on to win the next three tests to give him a victory on the day. The final round is Nov 15th and Cody has a really good shot at winning the NEPG Pro 2 title. Best of luck!

“My day started off good, I was only a few seconds off of first place. The track was very sandy and I was feeling pretty good on the bike. After test three I was sitting around 15 seconds out of 1st place. I raced hard and was able to win the next two tests and headed into the final tests four seconds down. My Beta 250RR was running awesome all day and I was able to use that to help me take the win during the final test which gave me the win on the day in the Pro 2 class. I’m really happy with my riding today and I am looking forward to ending the season on a high note at the next round!”

“I struggled off and on at the Gobbler Getter, especially in the tighter sections. However, my 200 RR handled like a champ, and even though I didn’t feel my best, I was still able to take the Women’s Elite win by roughly a minute! I’m happy to bring home another win for Beta, and I believe I will be able to finally duplicate the feat at the final round GNCC round next weekend.”
