Ryan Kudla has qualified for his 3rd ISDE on a Club Team. He has participated in Italy, Slovakia and now Vina Del Mar, Chili – November 12th-17th. Ryan competed in a three event Qualifying series in Arizona, Nor Cal and Idaho. Top 7 in the West – and Top 7 in the Eastern Qualifiers automatically qualified for Club Teams. Ryan finished 5th in the Western Series. 5 additional club riders were selected by the AMA based on participation and results. Because his brother is the AMA Off Road Manager and a member of the ISDE Committee – Ryan had to qualify in the series and couldn’t hope to be selected by the committee even though he is an experienced ISDE rider.
Now the fund raising begins. Cost estimate at this time is $23,000.00 to participate. This includes Air Fare, Hotel and rental car for Ryan and one support person (each rider is required to bring one), entry fees, bike and equipment shipment.
This year in Chili – Ryan would like to offer VCMC title sponsorship.
