Shan Moore | October 30, 2014
It’s official! Beta USA announced today the signing of Jesse Groemm for the 2015 and 2016 seasons. Groemm, who finished second overall in the 2014 Kenda AMA National Enduro Series, will compete in the GNCCs on a Factory Beta 250 RR in the XC2 class and in the National Enduros on a Factory Beta 300 RR.
“The past three years racing National Enduros,” says Groemm. “I’ve learned a ton about racing at a professional level and I’ve learned some valuable life lessons. My goals have been to win a championship and earn a Factory Ride. I’m excited to say I’m riding for Factory Beta in 2015 and 2016; I’m thankful for this great opportunity and I can’t wait to put a Beta on the podium!”
Groemm is considered on of the pre-season favorites in the national enduro series heading into the 2015 season, after landing on the podium three times in 2014 and winning the Rattlesnake National Enduro in Pennsylvania.
“Jesse is a fantastic addition to our team,” says Tim Pilg, Beta USA Marketing Manager for Beta USA. “He finished second last season in the National Enduro series and I feel with his talent, we will have a shot at a couple titles next season. Our Enduro/GNCC team is complete with Cory Buttrick and Justin Sode as Jesse’s teammates and I am really excited to see what next year brings.”
Groemm will debut his Factory Beta at the first National Enduro of 2015 on February 1st.
