Round three of the AMA American Hard Enduro Series took place at Wildwood
Lake Raceway in Little Hocking, Ohio, where Sherco factory rider Wade Young
win the Bad Medicine Hard Enduro.
Hot off the win at the Tough Like RORR Extreme Race in Pennsylvania two
weeks before, Young picked up where he left off by taking a dominating win in
extremely hot and humid conditions at the Ohio event over Tely Energy Racing’s
Liam Draper, who was riding his first hard enduro. Former Pro Trials rider Quinn
Wentzel used his “feet up” skills to round out the podium in third.
FMF/KTM’s XC2 GNCC ace Ben Kelley settled for fourth ahead of fomer National
Enduro winner Nick Fahringer.
The AMA American Hard Enduro Series resumes on August 3-4 for the Battle of
the Goats at Brushy Moutian in North Carolina.
