With the uncertainty of the second half of the season
and si ng one point behind 1
st
, we knew if the sea-
son con nued we would need to work hard. When
the season started back up, he was ready and dom-
inated the YXC2 class, but it went down to the last
race for the championship. Nick knew what he had to
do; he lined up more focused than ever. Off the start,
he checked out and did not make it easy for anyone
winning the 2020 YXC2 championship. Time to move
up to the front row, YXC1!
During the off-season Nicholas was able to do a few
Enduros and raced the Sumter, SC. NEPG, where he
earned first in the B 200 class on his KTM 125 SX.
Living in the South and close to Ba ery Park Offroad,
he was able to work on his raw speed and racing in
sandy condi ons.
As the start of the 2021 race season began, Nicholas
got the opportunity to race on the Ba ery Park Off
Road race team and was a force to be reckoned with.
Racing at speed he has never seen before, Nick was
able to earn 2nd for the year in YXC1 in GNCC. He also
decided to add in a different discipline and do a Kenda
Extreme Enduro where he was able to qualify for the
main race. He's looking forward to trying more in 2022.
In 2022, we made a bike brand change to Kawasaki and
Nicholas is now part of Team Green on a KX112, racing
the YXC1 class going for the championship in GNCC.
Nicholas just wrapped up the Carolina XC 2021-2022
championship for the super mini. He will also be com-
pe ng on his Team Green KX250x in the Mid East Hare
Scramble Series, Full Gas Sprint Enduros and U.S. Sprint
Enduros when possible. Go follow Nick on Instagram at
