Crossfork, Pa. - Round six of the AMA National Enduro Series took place over the weekend at the long-running Rattlesnake National Enduro in Northern Pennsylvania, where Team Babbitt’s/Monster Energy®/Kawasaki rider Grant Baylor continued to grow his points lead with a strong second-place overall finish.
Coming off of a win at the previous round in Georgia, Grant was looking forward to rumbling his way through the rocky and technical terrain of Pennsylvania in search of another win but fell just short of his goal, placing second overall on the day. After a steady and consistent day where he never finished below fourth in any section, Baylor found himself in a virtual tie with his closest points rival heading into the last section, where he was able to not only best his rival but take the test win as well.
"It was a good day for me; I just tried keeping it smooth and consistent all day because the rocks here can jump up and get you pretty fast, which has happened multiple times in the past. I was able to let it all hang out in the last test, which put me up to second place and extended the points lead a little bit, so all in all, it was a great day," said Baylor.
The next round of the AMA National Enduro Series will be located in Wellston, Ohio, on September 10th, where Grant will look to continue to grow his points lead, which now stands at 32 points.
