Strang takes Second Place at Round Five of the US Sprint Enduro

 

At Round 5 of the 2026 U.S. Sprint Enduro Series held at High Voltage, Josh Strang made his series debut aboard his Liqui Moly Beta. The veteran rider showed immediate flashes of his signature speed, finishing as high as third in the opening cross test on Saturday. However, as the weekend progressed and the West Virginia terrain turned into a “soggy” and “unpredictable” challenge, Strang admitted to finding his rhythm difficult to maintain. Conditions ranged from icy mud on Saturday to a technical, drying track on Sunday. Despite being slightly off his usual winning pace, Strang’s consistency earned him a respectable second in the Pro 1 class and fourth overall for the weekend. His teammate, Cody Barnes, who is second in series points, missed the race and will be out the rest of the series due to a neck injury sustained last weekend at a GNCC round.

“Overall the weekend was fun, it is my first sprint enduro in a few years so I was somewhat off pace but the track layout and the conditions were fun and tricky at the same time. My Beta Factory 480 RR was great and I look forward to doing a few more of these events.”
