U.S. ISDE Team Announced T he AMA revealed the 10 Tro- phy riders and 21 Club Team riders who will represent the U.S. at the 97th FIM International Six Days Enduro (ISDE), which takes place November 6-11 in San Juan, Argentina—the fifth time the ISDE has been held in South America. Ten Trophy riders will com - pete as the U.S. World Tro- phy, Junior World Trophy and Women's World Trophy teams. Every country participating in the ISDE is allowed four riders on its World Trophy Team, three riders age 23 or younger on its Junior Trophy Team, and three female riders on its Women's team. The 2023 U.S. World Trophy Team will be made up of Taylor Robert, Johnny Girroir, Dante Oliveira and Cole Martinez. "I'm looking forward to some redemption after our last year's performance in France," said KTM Director of Offroad Racing and ISDE Team Manager Antti Kallonen. "I can assure you, so are our riders. We have started our preparation now and will continue it until the end with only one goal in mind." The 2023 U.S. Women's World Trophy Team includes Brandy Richards, Rachel Gutish and Korie Steede. "I'm happy to announce we are bringing back the same Women's team as last year," said Kallonen. "They are hungry for redemption, and I expect great performances from all three riders." The 2023 U.S. Junior World Trophy Team, made up of riders age 23 and younger, includes Mateo Oliveira, Kai Aiello and Grant Davis. "Our Junior Trophy team is expected to perform well, and a championship is long overdue. The last time we won the cat - egory was actually in San Juan, Argentina, in 2014," Kallonen said. The AMA's two three-day qual- ifiers—one on the East Coast and one on the West Coast—re- sulted in the qualification of 16 individuals, while five riders were selected by the ISDE committee.
