IN THE WIND P50 Rieju Signs First U.S. Factory Support Racer R ieju USA announced the signing of Quinn Wentzel from Ohio to ride and compete on the new MR300 Racing and MR300 Pro for 2021. Rieju is a Spanish manufacturer of scooters and motorcycles that recently acquired the manu- facturing rights of the original Spanish-built GasGas brand. (Last year, Pierer Mobility acquired a majority interest in GasGas, and their motorcycles now share the same platform as KTM.) "We're excited to be sign- ing Quinn to represent Rieju at events all across the U.S.," said Rieju USA's Mark Berg. "Quinn is one of the best riders in the nation when it comes to hard off-road and will show the U.S. what the MR300 Racing and Pro models can accomplish this season." Rieju USA and Wentzel will focus efforts this year on the se- lect AMA Extreme races and the SEER race series with Quinn leading the charge. "I am super excited to repre- sent Rieju in 2021 and help the brand grow here is the U.S.," Wentzel said. "Hard enduro is one of the toughest motorcycle disciplines if not the toughest, and for that you need a tough machine. The Rieju MR300 checks all the boxes to be a winning bike in hard enduro. I'm looking forward to a great year with the team and thank them for this opportunity!" CN Quinn Wentzel will represent the Spanish manufacturer Rieju and its MR300 off- roader in hard enduro events in the U.S. in 2021.
