ISDE Success for U.S. Women's World Trophy Team

For the past three years, the U.S. Women’s World Trophy Team has dominated the International Six Days Enduro (ISDE) competition, claiming victory each time. The 99th annual ISDE took place in Bergamo, Italy from August 24-29, where Brandy Richards, Rachel Gutish, and Korie Steede secured the United States’ sixth Women’s World Trophy, tying the record with Australia.

The U.S. has been on a winning streak in the women’s class, winning four out of the last five championships. This year, they finished over 35 minutes ahead of the second-place Australian team. Brandy Richards took home the individual title for the third consecutive year, with Korie Steede in second place and Rachel Gutish in fourth.

Brandy Richards and her FMF KTM Factory Racing Team Landers' 350 XC-F showed exceptional performance throughout the six-day enduro, overcoming challenging weather conditions and tough competition.

“I couldn’t be prouder of my teammates and myself for this winning result,” Rachel Gutish said in an AMA press release. “We gave it everything we had all week, and to win by such a large margin reflects our hard work.”

On the men’s side, the American World Trophy Team finished in fourth place, led by Johnny Girroir, Cody Barnes, Josh Toth, and Dante Oliveira. Italy claimed the top spot, with Sweden and France following on the podium.

The American Junior World Trophy Team, consisting of Grant Davis, Cooper Jones, and Mateo Oliveira, finished in fourth place. Italy secured the Junior World Trophy, with France and Australia in second and third place.

Looking ahead, the 2026 ISDE will mark the 100th edition of the event, raising the question of whether history will repeat itself and a new record will be set.
