Former KTM rider Jesse Groemm will learn Italian as he races for Beta USA in GNCC and AMA National Enduro.
Beta USA officially announced the signing of Jesse Groemm to its factory off-road team for the 2015 and 2016 seasons. Groemm, a New Jersey native, will compete in AMSOIL Grand National Cross Country Series on a Factory Beta 250 RR in the XC2 class, and in Kenda AMA National National Enduros on a Factory Beta 300 RR. Groemm finished ninth in the GNCC XC2 Pro Lites points standings in 2014, and he was second in the 2014 Kenda AMA National Enduro Championship Series, where he visited the podium three times and won the Rattlesnake National Enduro in Pennsylvania.
Groemm said he is happy to be linked with Beta.
“The past three years racing National Enduros, I’ve learned a ton about racing at a professional level and I’ve learned some valuable life lessons,” Groemm said. “My goals have been to win a championship and earn a factory ride. I’m excited to say I’m riding for Factory Beta in 2015 and 2016; I’m thankful for this great opportunity and I can’t wait to put a Beta on the podium!”
Tim Pilg, Beta USA Marketing Manager, said that Groemm is a fantastic addition to the Beta team.
“He finished second last season in the National Enduro series, and I feel with his talent, we will have a shot at a couple titles next season,” Pilg said. “Our Enduro/GNCC team is complete with Cory Buttrick and Justin Sode as Jesse’s teammates, and I am really excited to see what next year brings.”
Groemm will debut his Factory Beta at the opening round of the Kenda AMA National Enduro Championship Series in the Manchester State Forest in
Wedgefield, South Carolina, on February 1.
