Superhard
Returns
T
he Cycle News Superhard
video series—a fun, insightful
trip into the world of hard enduro
racing—has returned for its third
season. The first episode of the
2023 season, a Vlog from the
recent King of the Motos event, is
now live on the Cycle News You
-
Tube channel. CN's own Jesse
Ziegler and good/bad idea insti-
gator Lukas Eddy take you inside
hard enduro races from an ama-
teur's perspective to show you
what it's like for mere mortals to
race these extreme events.
"We're not super good at this,
and this isn't super serious,"
Ziegler said. "Superhard has one
goal—to show people that rac
-
ing your dirt bike, no matter how
freakin' hard it can be, is worth it.
Always. We want people to sign
up for races with their friends and
enjoy the challenge. So, we create
videos showing what it's really like
as normal dirt biking enthusiasts,
not what the pros make it look
like! They're too damn good."
You can check out the latest
video now and catch up on the
Season 1's videos at the Cycle
News YouTube page. And, you can
see Season 2 on Klim Motorcycle's
YouTube channel from the Sea to
Sky Hard Enduro in Turkey.

otoAmerica says it will hold
a moment of remembrance
for the late Kevin Elliott Sr. prior
to the warm-up lap of the 81st
running of the Daytona 200.
Elliott was the president and

He passed away on January 29
at the age of 64.
A commemorative green flag
emblazoned with Elliott's name will
be used to start the warm-up lap
and the flag will be presented to his
family following the remembrance.
"I believe it's important to
acknowledge Kevin and the work
he did in keeping the Daytona 200
going under difficult conditions,
it's only fitting to have Kevin help
start the race a final time," said
MotoAmerica COO Chuck Ak
-
sland. "We're all headed to Day-
tona for the 81st running of the
200 and Kevin and his family will
be in our thoughts and prayers
throughout Bike Week."
"In a time of transition for
North American motorcycle road
racing, Kevin Elliott and his team
at ASRA/CCS stepped in to keep
the tradition of the Daytona 200
going," said Daytona Interna
-
tional Speedway President Frank
Kelleher. "His contributions to
motorcycle racing overall, and
Daytona International Speedway
in particular, cannot be over
-
stated."
