JOHN DOWD RETURNS TO RACE MAXXIS ENDUROCROSS

‘I had so much fun last year that I definitely want to come back for this year’s race,’ explained Dowd, a former national motocross champion. ‘I had no idea what I was getting into last year… I barely had time to ride the bike before the race, but it turned out to be a great event. It was a very technical and tough track but it made for great racing.’

David Knight was the overall winner in 2005 with Dowd finishing a few seconds behind in second place after battling it out with the young and up-and-coming Ricky Dietrich. ‘It was really no surprise to see John do so well,’ claims Eric Peronnard, co-promoter of the event. ‘A lot of the top motocrossers have a strong background in woods or trails riding. Combine that with their motocross skills and it makes for a perfect combination to ride EnduroCross.’
