A "Wild Card" invite has been issued to 18 year old Stewart Baylor, of South Carolina. He won the 2011 GNCC series XC 2 Pro class and has won five of the first six rounds in 2012. On top of that, Baylor has one four out of five rounds thus far in the AMA National Enduro championship against a very strong field. Based on these results, Baylor has been invited to his first X Games Enduro X
“The X Games is an amazing opportunity for these top racers to show off their skills in front of a huge live and television audience” stated Eric Peronnard, the creator of EnduroCross and X Games Enduro X Sports Organizer. “I especially enjoy seeing the young or relatively unknown riders get introduced to the world”, he continued.
If you want to see the riders that will be mixing it up at X Games 18, you can go to the Staples Center on Sunday, July 1st or catch many of those same riders at any of the other seven GEICO AMA EnduroCross events in 2012.
Round two of GEICO AMA EnduroCross championship will take place on Saturday, June 9th in the Power Balance Pavilion in Sacramento, California. It will be the first ever visit to Northern California for the series and the last chance for non-qualified riders to earn a coveted X Games invitation.
