The FIM WSX
Championship
returns for 2026
with five rounds
on five different
continents and
potentially a
sixth round to
be revealed at a
later date.
TKO Date Change
D
ue to a conflict with the FIM Hard
Enduro Championship, the 2026 Red
Bull Tennessee Knockout (TKO) has
been changed to Friday, August 28, to
Sunday, August 30.
This change allows some of the
world's top hard enduro racers to partici
-
pate in the TKO. In fact, Red Bull KTM's
Mani Lettenbichler and Husqvarna Fac-
tory Racing's Billy Bolt are planning to be
back to compete against the top North
American hard enduro racers.
"After confirming the dates for the
16th annual TKO last year, we were sur-
prised that the FIM Hard Enduro Champi-
onship scheduled a new event on the same date,"
Eric Peronnard, the co-producer of the TKO, said.
"With our team of partners, we worked to modify
our schedule to allow the best riders in the world
to attend the TKO to the delight of American fans."
The TKO is the premier U.S. hard enduro event
held at the Trials Training Center in Sequatchie,
Tennessee, and sells out the 500 amateur entries
available each year. The format allows for differ
-
ent levels of riders to enjoy a challenging course
that ramps up in difficulty throughout multiple
rounds of racing.

The 2026 Red Bull
