Blackfoot Motorcycle Park was the place to be on September 20 and 21, 2014, as the Red Bull Rocks & Logs entertained thousands in the heart of Calgary, Alberta.

Shane Cuthbertson of the Corner Grass Racing Team (CGRT) designed and managed an amazing purpose-built endurocross course, which challenged the most talented riders.

Ben Rego from Kitimat, B.C., made the 20-hour trek to Calgary to compete as one of 125 competitors in front of more than 3,000 spectators. Rego’s Husqvarna TE 300 worked flawlessly as he pushed to compete in a stacked Pro class. When the dust settled after two days of practice and qualifying, Rego finished sixth in the main event. He finished behind four AMA Geico EnduroCross regulars and KTM Canada up and comer Trystan Hart.

A cash prize of $8,500 was split between the top three in Amateur, Veteran, Women and Junior, plus prizes from Cycle Works, Blackfoot Direct and Troy Lee Designs. The top eight finishers in the Pro Category received cash.

Pro Category Results:

1st Place: Kyle Redmond
2nd Place: Cory Graffunder
3rd Place: Geoff Aaron
4th Place: Bobby Prochnau
5th Place: Trystan Hart
6th Place: Ben Rego

8th Place: Clint Boos
