The 2015 tour has added the Northstar Enduro, a race held in Northstar California Resort in the California Enduro Series, and the Enduro X at Steamboat, a race held in Steamboat Springs, Colorado from the Enduro X Series.

“This is the first time the tour has included a race in California. We’re really excited to add this race, and the new stop in Colorado, and to offer a tour with such varied terrain,” says Darren Kinnaird, North American Enduro Tour board member.

Whistler will kick off the nine-stop tour with the SRAM GO Enduro, an event taking part as one component of the ski resort’s Great Outdoors Festival, GO Fest.

The stops on the Oregon Enduro Series, Big Mountain Enduro and the Enduro Cup races will all be back for this fifth season of the tour.

NAET is the North American answer to the Enduro World Series, offering a platform for top U.S. and Canadian enduro athletes to prove themselves against the best on the continent. It also serves as a stepping stone to competing in the EWS.
