The California Enduro Series headed just south of the border to kick off the 2023 season in Baja California with the Ensenada Bike Fest Enduro on March 18. The race was part of the Ensenada Bike Fest, a celebration of all things bike presented by Relampago Events Group.
The venue’s laid-back coastal oasis vibe combined with the enduro’s raw, rowdy course to deliver a sweet ’n spicy adventure for racers and their friends and families.
The event’s “base camp” Horsepower Ranch, located just outside of Ensenada in Mexico, served up top notch hospitality and all the amenities (including a refreshing pool) for a stellar stay. The race itself took place seven miles away at nearby Rancho La Rinconada, where trails were built especially for the event.
Erik Szayna (6) snatched the top step of the Pro Men’s podium, while Kera Linn (10) took first place for Pro Women. The Junior Pro Men U21 champ was Diego Osuna (13); Master Pro Men 40+ Mark Jeffrey (14) and Open eMTB Men Parker Brian (18 ).
