EnduroCross comes to Moto Expo

Riders will tackle obstacles such as logs, rocks and tyres in an EnduroCross event run in association with the Moto Expo in Melbourne next month.

It’s wild and exciting and will include 20 of the world’s best off-road racers at Melbourne Showgrounds on November 28-30.

Event organiser Troy Bayliss says the star-stuided line-up of riders include three-time Australian Four Day Endurance Champion Daniel Milner, four-time Finke Desert Race Champion Ben Grabham and multiple Australian Off-Road Champion and current Enduro X champion Chris Hollis.

“These guys are incredible on bikes, how fast they ride no matter if it’s out in the desert or on technical Enduro X tracks is astounding,” he says.

Troy might even have a go at EnduroCross! He will also be competing in the equally star-studded Baylisstic Scramble event during the MotoExpo.

Chris says the Moto Expo will give EnduroCross great exposure to the public. “its a incredible line up of riders,” he says. The full list of riders will be released in coming weeks.
