Endurocross Media Press Release:

X Games has announced that there will be an X Games Austin Moto X Step Up Qualifier held in collaboration with Round three of the 2015 GEICO AMA EnduroCross Championship Series on May 1, 2015, at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas.

The qualifier will take place the evening before the Monster Energy Supercross finals and will be open to 30 riders, with the top 10 riders advancing to the evening show. The final top three athletes will be invited to compete at X Games Austin on Thursday, June 4, in front of the Texas State Capitol in downtown Austin.

Three additional riders also qualified for the X Games Enduro X during the Daytona GEICO EnduroCross opener in Daytona Beach, Florida this past weekend. Factory Beta’s Kyle Redmond earned a spot with a third place finish in the main. Kevin Rookstool was the second rider to earn an invite to X Games Austin with an eighth place finish during a weekend in which he raced EnduroCross on Friday, Supercross on Saturday and the GNCC on Sunday. And the third rider to qualify was sixteen year old Ty Cullins, who won his heat race to make the main during his first pro EnduroCross race.

Three more riders will qualify for X Games Enduro X at each of the two upcoming GEICO EnduroCross events in Salt Lake City, Utah and Las Vegas, Nevada.

The next round of the GEICO AMA EnduroCross series will take place at Energy Solutions Arena in Salt Lake City, Utah on Saturday, March 21st.
