The pro riders are part of the international structure of the sport. And, USA Cycling spent more $530,000 on mountain bike athlete development and pre-Olympic preparation in 2012. Events that are not sanctioned by USA Cycling don't contribute to that ... more »

i really hope the enduro carze settles a bit and we get quality over quantity in the US. Right now it seems everyone one and their brother is adding an "enduro" series to their regional calendar but the majority of these seem like downslope xc or super D style. Proper enduro needs some good elevation and terrain, and I'm just not seeing this in the latest photos of US competitions.
The Euro series has the concept pretty dialed in terms of terrain, and that is the level we should be striving for here in the US. Maybe that means not every race series in the country can have and "enduro", but at least this way we are not dumbing it down like we have DH here (where Sea Otter and Fontana are acceptable venues for a national champ series).
Do it right or don't do it at all.
