Ryan Sipes is the new manager for Steward Baylor’s Rocky Mountain/Red Bear Racing Kawasaki Off-Road Team.
Known for his remarkable versatility, Sipes boasts an impressive professional Supercross and motocross career, and he has also excelled in off-road racing. Notably, he was the first American to achieve the individual overall title in the ISDE. His wealth of knowledge should be a significant asset to Baylor’s expanding GNCC and National Enduro program.
Sipes said, “I am proud to be managing the Rocky Mountain/Red Bear Racing Kawasaki Off-Road Team for 2025 and beyond. I am super grateful for the opportunity and excited to get back into GNCC and National Enduro racing. The atmosphere is just different in off-road, in a good way. And, although I won’t be racing, it’s going to be fun passing along my knowledge to our riders and helping them be their best and achieve their goals. Now that we aren’t competitors, I can finally share my secrets with him!
“I was a Team Green rider all throughout my amateur career. It feels good to be back with the brand. The new KXs are amazing bikes, we have great mechanics, [and] we have winning riders. We have an unbelievable practice facility at The Shoals MX. Our whole facility is top notch.” CN
