Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Josh Strang and Andrew DeLong put in solid rides at the first National Enduro of the 2015 season. Good weather and traction made for a nice day as the team rode to top ten finishes. Strang, new to the Husqvarna team, made progress throughout the day battling between 4^th and 7^th positions, finishing the last two tests strong and ending the day 7^th overall. “Today was good. I enjoyed the race but I’m still trying to get used to the different style of racing and the tight trees,” explained Strang. “I felt comfortable but a little off the pace. With some more time in the woods and some extra time on the bike it should be good.”

Husqvarna veteran and reigning National Enduro Champion, Andrew DeLong, entered his 4^th season on a Husky.  He battled at the front lines for most of the day but a late race incident dropped him back down a bit, closing out the day in 8^th place. “I had a solid day on the FC 350 that worked great, just not the results I was looking for,” said DeLong.
