Welcome to MidwestEnduros.com, created and updated by Ryan Moss.  My hopes are to post news about upcoming enduro events, results from each race, and points standings from each series.  The series that I try to cover are: AMA District 14, 16, 17, 23 and IERA events.  I will try to provide a simple and efficient way of getting the information out to the Midwest Enduro Riders.

Clubs:

I want to help promote your event and to provide information to the riders.  So get your information to me and I will get it posted up for you.  I can post before / after race information, route sheets, results, etc.  Preferred methods are Microsoft Excel, Word, or PDF Files.

New Enduro Riders:

Please check out the About Enduros tab to get information about the sport of enduros.  Lots of your questions can be answered there.

Megatrax Woods day and EX this Saturday:

Wardy and family are having a woods day then an EX at night for us off road guys.  This is perfect timing since the D17 HS series starts up soon. 

This is what has been posted so far:

Here is the plan. 12-4pm woods day just like we did for woods night with more time to do it. (separating classes) Long layout, with all the obstacles the riders got to enjoy last year.
Event will be after 5pm classes to be announced.
Then we tighten it up and start up our Ex event. More technical, shorter then woods day, but with a green, white, checker.

I'll post more info if I get it.  Also check their website and Facebook page:

Happy New Year Everyone!

Let's hope this year is better then last year!

I don't have official schedules yet for a few series.  I'll work on getting updated what I have and fill in the rest as I get them. 

Hoping to start a products of the month page for 2021.  It will list some of the products I use and maybe a review of them as well.  And yes it will have a lot of Moose Racing products since they have a ton of great products!

District 14 Update from Mike Maurer:

As we start to plan for the 2021 enduro series, our team will not be changing. I will continue as the enduro chairman and I have asked Jeramy Pelaston to be the vice chairman again. Kris Tolly will be our treasurer and Logan Densmore will be our points keeper. Fred Kraemer, Vic and Tina Flegel will also be our rider representatives.

The only rule change was related to the fee charged to the clubs for the district banquet fund. Some of the clubs might consider an adjustment to their entry fees. We discussed how our events are a great deal for the cost.

We are planning our annual awards banquet for March 20th . The COVID virus not only impacted our racing/riding season, but also required us to change locations of our banquet. We have signed a contract with the Soaring Eagle Casino for a banquet on March 20th .
We only had 5 events this year and our two largest events were cancelled – Roselawn and Jack Pine. The Matthews National had over 500 riders, but most of them were from outside of District 14. Our budget for banquet awards is a lot less than last year and we will have fewer awards this year. The monogrammed jackets will not be available to everyone, but we have plaques/trophies for everyone on this list:

 General FYI about scoring and protest period:

This season many of the clubs and directors from the Midwest Enduro series have received more than the usual amount of communications about a riders score being wrong long after the event and protest period is over.  Per the AMA rules once the protest period is over the results are final.  What this means is it's the riders responsibility to stay and make sure your score is correct, your class is correct, etc. not bail to get home early and then call, txt, email that night or two days later that you score was wrong and it should be fixed; classes can be fixed but that should be done before you leave the event.  Yes I know everyone has a long drive and sometimes you just have to leave so if that is the case have a buddy check for you.  While it's no fun for you to have a messed up score it's no fun for a rider to think he got X place at the event then when points are posted he got X.  And truth be told it's no fun for the clubs and the Directors of each series to be in the middle of that.  So please stay or have your score checked, especially if you are a point’s chaser and want the correct score / points.
