1,586 views 1 month ago
29 years ago, on the sandy shores of Maui, XTERRA champions were forged like the Pahoehoe and A’a lava they raced across. Like the hardened rock, legends were shaped over time. Then came Trentino, beneath the towering Brenta Dolomites, where unpredictable weather and fast trails tested the world’s best. Now, the next chapter unfolds in the heart of the American frontier. In 2026, the XTERRA World Championship returns to the USA — to Ruidoso, New Mexico — where history runs deep and the spirit of the Wild West still lingers. Among the towering pines, rugged peaks, and storied trails of Lincoln National Forest, new legends will rise. Read the Announcement: https://www.xterraplanet.com/story/xt...
