NEW BERWICK, Maine – Husaberg Factory rider Mike Lafferty just missed out on a win at the 9th round of the AMA National Enduro Series and took home a commendable 2nd place finish while fellow Husaberg rider Nick Fahringer finished right behind him in 3rd.

The race was cut to 5 tests after the first test was dropped after there was a problem with communication between the officials at the starting point and the first check. After the dropped test Lafferty really showed that his training over the past few months was finally paying off. Lafferty won the first two sections. He struggled the most in the third test where he finished 4th fastest but then picked up his speed for the final two tests to finish 2nd fastest in the second to last test and 3rd fastest in the final test. When it was all said and done Lafferty finished just 33 seconds down from eventual winner Russell Bobbitt.

“I am definitely bummed that I wasn’t able to get a win today but it feels great to know that I was back up front battling for the win. The past few races I have been struggling to find the speed to hang with the leaders and it is really good to know I still have it,” remarked Lafferty.

Fahringer also put in a remarkable ride to land two Husaberg machines on the final podium. Fahringer finished with the second fastest lap times in three of five tests to finish 3rd overall for the day just 34 seconds behind Lafferty.

BIG SKY, Mont. – Husaberg Factory rider Nathan Woods earned his first win aboard his Husaberg race machine at the 6th round of the AMA Western National Hare Scrambles event on the ski slopes of Lone Peak Mountain at the Big Sky Ski Resort.

Woods started off the 3-hour endurance race around 6th position and quickly began closing in on the top five riders. Rain the night before and the day of the race had made the rocky course very slick and proved to be one of the most technical races all season. Woods was able to keep his bike on two wheels through the majority of the race which allowed him to move into 2nd shortly before the first pit. At the pit stop, Woods was able to pass Brian Garrahan for the lead and never looked back. At one point Woods lead was up to five minutes on Garrahan.

Woods would finish the race in 3 hours and 18 minutes after 6 gruelling laps. His final finish time was approximately 2 minutes and 30 seconds over the 2nd place ride of Garrahan. “On the final lap, I came together with a lapper and we both crashed. After that, I became more cautious and backed off a little bit in order to finish the race in one piece and take home the win,” remarked Woods. “It feels great to put the Husaberg on the top step of the podium. We have been working really hard to develop the bike into a great race bike and I feel like we have made huge leaps and look forward to finishing on the podium more frequently this season.”

Woods next event will be the Glen Helen WORCS race coming up in two weeks. Woods is looking forward to finishing the WORCS events on the podium and then flying to Mexico to compete on the ISDE trophy team.

At the Swedish Enduro Enduro Championship rounds 4&5 this past weekend during Saturday and Sunday, there was alot of extra exitement due to some top riders from Finland joining the race. Juha Salminen and Marko Tarkkala were there along with the Finnish Junior Trophy riders, who did this race as part of their preparation for the 2010 ISDE.

Joakim Ljunggren had to undergo surgery the week previous to the event due to a knee problem and was a bit worried that perhaps his winning streak of 20 straight wins in the Swedish Championship would come to an end.

During the first race day on Saturday it was clear from the beginning that Juha and Joakim where in a class of their own, chasing each other with seconds back and forth throughout the whole day. At the later stages Juha went down and lost some 15 seconds and after this Joakim never looked back and pulled out the lead a bit further to secure the race win of the day both in the SM2 class and overall.

On the second day of the event the track was a bit more deteriorated and had more sand woops and bumps and Joakim thought he would have a tougher time. The temperatures where between 20-25 degrees celsius and the wind was blowing strong. But the Sunday turned otu to be more or less a repetition of the previous day and Joakim Ljunggren won the day in the same way as the day before with Juha trying so hard in the last stages that he went down and lost some seconds again.

The traditional La Chinelle off-road endurance race was held last weekend. This is an endurance race of around 12 hours, in which 100 teams, each with three pilots, compete. Interesting detail: the three team members ride the same bike, which requires a first-rate relationship between them. To spice up the whole affair a little, the event was scheduled to start at midnight on an unlighted 7-km track.

Wim Vanderheyden took up the challenge, accompanied by Cedric Cremer and Roel Verpoorten. Although they had originally selected the Husaberg FX 450 with which they have a great deal of experience, they decided to accept the suggestion – exactly 1 week before the competition – to use the TE 300 – Husaberg’s first two-stroke bike.

The first training runs were held on Saturday morning. At around 14:00, tme practice needed to determine the starting order, and each team had to designate a rider who would be given a chance to clock a fast lap. Cedric did that perfectly and clocked the fastest lap time. There was a night training later that evening, and the team took the opportunity to adjust the headlight. The track had become very dusty in the meantime, lowering visibility dramatically.

They decided to let pole sitter Cedric start off, while Wim would take over after an hour and fifteen minutes, since by then they would be in urgent need to tank up. The numbers of spectators swelled in the run-up to the starting time, and by 11:30 there were about 15,000 persons. Fifteen minutes before the start, it started to rain hard, turning the dreaded dust into a thin layer of slush – on a hard surface, and this set the scene for a real “Holiday on Ice”.
