2024 Enduro Engineering Grassman National Enduro // Round 7 Highlights // Chandlersville, OH

Welcome back motorcycle fan and enduro enthusiasts alike, welcome to Chandlersville Ohio for round 7 of 2024 Redline Oil National Enduro Series presented by MSR and Beta Motorcycles.
The enduro engineering grassman national has always been a fan favorite and the layout of this year’s 81 mile route provided by the Ohio woods riders was nothing short of perfect! The abrupt elevation and technical terrain of eastern Ohio would test riders of all skill levels. As rider if you successfully navigated the steep climbs, the technical roots and occasional rock, you certainly left with a smile at the end of the day.
In the NEPro1 class rockstar Husqvarna rider Trevor Bolinger was back for his second race in a row and was looking to finish what he started in Pennsylvania. Although a test win was not in the cards today Trevor would finish no worse than 5th in any test and claim 3rd place on the day for his 1st podium in only 2 starts.
FMF Rebull KTM rider Johnny Girror would have a quiet day. Johnny would take the test one win but finish second in nearly all other test for a 2nd overall on the day.
It is beginning to sound like a broken record for many of his competitors but Josh Toth loves the sweet sound of victory. After finishing a frustrating 4th in test 1. A motivated Toth would ride his Enduro Engineering Gas Gas to the next 5 test wins for his 6th straight NEPG victory of the season.
In the NEPro 2 class Red Bear racing Rocky Mountain ATVMC Kawasaki rider Will Sievenpiper would capture 1 test win for the day. Sievenpiper would stay close to the lead pack in all other tests to secure 3rd on the day for his third podium finish.
Hunter Smith was a Man on Fire in the pro 2 class today. Smith not racing with NEPG since 2022 would take his Bonecutter backed GasGas to 2 tests wins and fall just 3 seconds short of the top spot for the day.
Landers FMF KTM rider Grant Davis would come into Ohio with some serious momentum. It helps when you come off an impressive win and have a 25 point lead in the standings. Unfortunately for Davis Disaster would strike in Test 4. Unable to continue with a shoulder injury the KTM rider may have left the championship door open.
The biggest benefactor would be none other than Bubz Tasha on his Am Pro Yamaha. Being second place in points Tasha knew he needed to ride well to stay in the hunt. Ride well is what he did taking 3 test wins on the day and lead him to the top step of the podium shrinking the gap to first place in point to only 3 for the season.
In the women’s Elite class Rachael Archer on the Red Bear Racing Rocky Mountain ATVMC Kawasaki was coming off the her worst finish of the season In Pennsylvania. The best way to answer back is with a dominating performance, and that’s just what she did. After the 1st test archer would win the rest and re claim the top of the box for the 6th time this season.
Shelby Turner is gaining momentum as the season grinds on. The Enduro Engineering Gas Gas Rider was battling all day for the 2nd spot on the podium taking it all the way to the final test before claiming it as her own. 4 seconds ahead of 3rd on the day, turner would be 2nd for the 2nd round in a row.
Sherco USA rider Racheal gutish would find a test win today. However The previous round winner would have bike problems and not make it to the finish here in Ohio.
That leaves room for a new face to the podium! None other than last year’s beta cup winner Emma Hasbell. Emma has been close to a podium several times in her first year in the women’s elite class and It would all pay off for the Marshall racing backed Beta rider here in Ohio with a 3rd place.
70 percent of the way into the season Enduro Enginnering Gas Gas rider Josh Toth will continue dominate and stretch to a 49 point lead in points over Steward Baylor Jr on his redbear racing Rocky Mountain ATVMC Kawasaki.
In the NEPro2 class it’s just as close as it was after round 1. Nathanael Bubz Tasha is now just 3 back from Grant Davis.
