BEST TO DATE FINISH BY ANDREW DELONG AT SNOWSHOE @GNCC


Andrew DeLong showed that his hard work is paying off by collecting his best finish to date at the Snowshoe GNCC. The Factory Husqvarna rider rode to a third-place finish at round nine of the Grand National Cross Country Series, marking his first podium of the season.

Andrew took on the mud, roots and steep terrain of the Snowshoe course – home to West Virginia's largest ski resort – and quickly found himself in contention for second place. He took on a three-way battle with Thad DuVall and Jordan Ashburn throughout the first three laps of the race.

The Factory Husqvarna racer, riding his FE 350, relied on his training to power through the last part of the race to finish on the podium.
It was the Husqvarna rider’s best finish of the season, and first podium as an XC1 Pro rider but DeLong already has multiple overall podiums to his credit.

The veteran Husqvarna rider broke onto the overall GNCC podium twice in 2012 as an XC2 Pro rider.

SOLID SIXTH FOR MIKE BROWN AT AMA ENDUROCROSS

FACTORY HUSQVARNA'S MIKE BROWN A SOLID SIXTH AT AMA ENDUROCROSS
Factory Husqvarna’s Mike Brown had a solid ride at the Sleep Train Arena in Sacramento, California to finish sixth in the latest round of the AMA EnduroCross Championship this weekend.

Brown was looking to improve on his hard luck suffered at the season opener in Las Vegas and came into the evening program on a positive note after qualifying second during the pre-show hot-laps.

He finished second in his heat race and was looking to put it all together in the main event, but multiples falls in the rocks relegated him to a sixth-place finish. Brown still picked up hard-earned points in the championship
