The Coastal Racing Team will utilize the Haibike XDURO and NDURO at GNCC track preview sessions.

The Coastal Racing Team is pleased to announce a groundbreaking sponsorship with Haibike, a pioneering German electric bicycle brand. The team’s ATV, Side-by-Side and Motorcycle riders, along with crew members, will utilize Haibike’s innovative eBikes for the remainder of the Grand National Cross Country (GNCC) season.

Since 1995, Haibike has continued to revolutionize the bicycle market with its innovative design and technological advancements. The leading e-bike manufacturer Haibike made its GNCC debut last weekend, June 25 and 26, at the Snowshoe GNCC with Coastal Racing team riders showcasing a Haibike XDURO AllMtn with 150 mm of suspension and two Haibike NDUROs with 180 mm of suspension.

“We’re really excited to be working with a company like Haibike, who makes such a quality product that we believe will benefit the entire team on race weekends,” said Coastal Racing Team Manager Barry Hawk. “GNCC’s recent rule clarification has opened the door for riders and teams to better prepare for the highest level of race competition and we’re happy to bring Haibike into our sport.”

The Coastal Racing Team features nine premier riders who compete in three different disciplines, including Side-by-Side team drivers Scott Kiger, Sean Bogdan, John Henry and Bill Patterson; ATV racers Brycen Neal and Eli Kiger; and motorcycle riders Ryan Sipes, Layne Michael and Craig DeLong. The team is managed by eight-time GNCC National Champion Barry Hawk.

“ePerformance bikes are perfect for GNCC course preparation,” said Ken Miner, director of sales for Haibike USA. “By taking advantage of our ePerformance bikes, Coastal Racing riders can potentially cover more of the course prior to the race. This means more terrain intel,which gives the team a competitive advantage.”

The GNCC Series is on a two-month summer break, where it will return to racing on Sept. 10 and 11 in New Berlin, New York.
