The Spanish motorcycle brand has released six completely new off-road bikes for 2018 that will be arriving at dealers soon. To help showcase those new bikes, GasGas will have Geoff Aaron and Noah Kepple competing in the premier Super EnduroCross class during the seven round AMA EnduroCross championship. Aaron is an EnduroCross legend with multiple race wins to his credit and Kepple is a young gun that qualified for every EnduroCross main event in 2016.
