CLASS WIN FOR ROBERT
AT MUDDY PORTUGAL
WORLD ENDURO
I
n only his fourth day of compe-
tition in the FIM Enduro World
Championship, American Taylor
Robert celebrated a class win
in Gouveia, Portugal, April 16-17.
The super muddy and rocky
conditions were an unlikely set-
ting for Robert's standout ride,
but the Arizona native managed
to claim the E2 class win Sun-
day, while also carding a pair of
fourth-place finishes in the ultra-
competitive EnduroGP (overall)
class over the weekend at the
GP of Portugal.
"All in all it's been a really
good day for me," said Robert.
"I lost some time to Phillips early
on but seemed to come good
in the middle of the day. I had a
good crash in the final extreme
test and I was pushing hard
to try and get onto the overall
[EnduroGP] podium, but luck-
ily I didn't lose too much time
and managed to get the win in
Enduro 2."
