april 2026

In this month’s issue, we dive into the opening rounds of the season across multiple disciplines, headlined by the brutal kickoff of the Ohio Hard Enduro Championship Series—where the terrain proved unforgiving and set the tone for the year ahead. We also break down Spain’s dominant performance at the X-Trial of Nations, along with early-season action from the STRA and AHRMA Firewater Cross Country events.

On the equipment side, we spend time with the Fantic XE300 as Brian Pierce puts the bike through real race conditions, sharing insights on setup, performance, and the mental approach to adapting to new machinery under pressure.

From national-level competition to grassroots racing, this issue captures the depth of the off-road scene, with stories that highlight not only the winners, but the challenges, progression, and community that define the sport.

ON THE COVER –
