The Future of American Enduro with Steward Baylor Jr

Enduro in America is in trouble. The average rider is getting older, clubs are struggling to find volunteers, and the National Enduro Series is going through big changes for 2026 and beyond. In this Seat Time Podcast episode, Steward Baylor Jr. breaks down what is happening to the series and why he decided to buy it.​

We talk through the new American National Enduro Championship name, what it means for riders, how the 2026 schedule came together, drop rounds, two-day events, and what needs to change if Enduro in America is going to grow instead of fade away. Stew also shares how he thinks about fairness while owning the series and still racing, and what he’s doing to make the experience better for racers and clubs.​

If you race enduro, ride singletrack, or just care about the future of off-road racing in the U.S., this one is worth a full listen.
