The sixth round of the FIM Enduro World Championship got underway this past weekend from just outside the Greek town of Serres. Points leader, David Knight would finish in the runner-up position on day one after being delayed by a stray dog but would rebound on day two to take the win.

Knight now enjoys a 52-point lead over his closest competitor with only two rounds remaining in the series. Since only 50 points are available per event, there is a very good chance the talented Brit could wrap up the E3-class title early this coming weekend at the GP of Turkey.

Stateside, the third round of the AMA Endurocross series invaded the Pepsi Coliseum in Indianapolis, Ind. Moose Racing had a strong presence at the event with a stellar line-up of riders competing indoors and the Moose Racing semi truck drawing quite the crowd outdoors.
Kevin Rookstool was the top performing Moose Racing rider at the event as he earned his first Endurocross podium finish with a solid third place. The series will head back out west to the Comcast Arena in Everett, Wash. for the fourth round of the series on September 11, 2010.
Also racing in the state of Indiana this past weekend was the Parts Unlimited OMA Nationals. Talented up-and-comer, Jordan Ashburn worked his way onto the podium at the eighth round of the series with a strong third place ride. Ashburn has been turning a lot of heads this year in the off-road community and is quickly becoming someone to look out for on the starting line.
In the Pro ATV class, team riders Kyle Martin and John Pitts put in two good rides to take home a first and a third, respectively. Bryan Hulsey, another Moose Racing rider, still holds onto the championship points lead but his lead is down to only a handful of points as Martin and Pitts are making some late season charges.
The penultimate round of the series takes place on September 18 – 19 in Memphis, Mo. at the Moonshine XC.
