In this Interview with American Hard Enduro rider, Cody Webb we delve into some interesting topics starting off with a discussion about the differences between AMA and FIM Hard Enduro. With varying talent, formats and organization styles this is an insightful discussion. Cody has a strong trials background, arguably one of the few US riders with such a technical upbringing, he emphasizes the importance of these skills as foundational for hard enduro. We have seen many races in recent times focusing on more challenging and technical routes with less emphasis on giving riders a return on the resources invested into the sport. Cody shares his ideas on how the sport could be more attractive and motivating for juniors in the future. Lastly we discuss some iconic races from Cody’s past such as Tough like Rorr and Roof of Africa.
