For the first time in its
history, Northstar resort which is close to the city of
Truckee in
California, hosted a round of the
Enduro World Series. Situated just north of
Lake Tahoe, the weekend proved to be somewhat technical but above all, very dry and dusty.
Behind the bars of his
META AM 29, Antoine scored another
victory this weekend in
Northstar, California. With such a great race, he managed to secure the
Enduro World Series overall U21 title! Even with one round left next month in
Zermatt, Switzerland.
An young champion who can already compare himself to the best in the discipline. Indeed despite two falls he finished 8th overall out of the whole field over the weekend! An incredible performance for a young rider who has demonstrated that he can already be relied on when he moves into the Elite category in two years time.
After this full season and becoming 2019 EWS U21 Champion, Antoine says, “The season we just lived with the team was perfect! The atmosphere is always superb, always happy. Thanks to them for helping me reach this level. Winning the EWS is something great! I cannot wait to start next season!"
Note that the young rider will participate in the DH World Championships with his French selection this weekend. Hhe has already participated in three rounds of World Cup this season too. Good luck!
With a month until the last round of
2019 in
Switzerland, Antoine
Vidal (COMMENCAL VALLNORD Enduro Team) is closing in on the overall win in the
U21 category! The young French rider largely dominated this American round to sign off on his
5th victory of the season!
