The California Enduro Series was back in the Sierra Nevada over Labor Day weekend for Round 5 of the 2023 season. The sold-out China Peak Enduro took place at China Peak Mountain Resort in Lakeshore on Saturday September 2.
Year after year, this event is a racer favorite due to its rugged, granite-infused terrain, fun camping scene, and casual vibe. This season, Mother Nature amped up the fun factor on race day by swapping out typically hot, dry and loose conditions for delightfully tacky dirt and cool, albeit wet, weather.
Marco Osborne reigned as China Peak Enduro Pro Men champ, while Essence Florie took the coveted top step for Pro Women.
