Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Ryder LeBlond secured his second-consecutive podium finish of the 2026 AMA EnduroCross Championship with third overall inside Nampa’s Ford Idaho Center on Saturday night.

AMA EnduroCross Championship – Round 2

Following a runner-up result at the Las Vegas opener, LeBlond continued his competitive start to the season aboard the Husqvarna FX 350, earning another EX Pro Class podium in Idaho.

Consistency was a positive for LeBlond throughout the evening’s three-race program, although a mistake in Race 2 proved costly to his chances of challenging for the overall victory.

The Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing rider ultimately completed the podium behind Trystan Hart and Jonny Walker, leaving Nampa motivated to take another step forward when the championship resumes next weekend.

"We just finished up Nampa EnduroCross, Round 2 of the 2026 season – it was a pretty good night and we got on the podium," commented LeBlond. "I was pretty consistent and didn’t have too many issues. One little mistake in Moto 2 kind of took me out of contention for the overall – it would have been a little closer going into the final moto, but I let it slip away. It’s racing, and I’ll learn from it. If anything, it’ll just fire me up more for the next race, and I’m looking forward to it!"

The 2026 AMA EnduroCross Championship now continues with Round 3 at Angel of the Winds Arena in Everett, Washington, on October 24.
