These 21 competitors will join the U.S. World Trophy, Junior Trophy and Women’s Trophy teams in the race for gold medals.

U.S. ISDE Club Team Riders qualified through two regional series and one three-day event, with an additional three riders being selected based on participation in each series.

East Qualifiers: Ty Tremaine, Jacob Rowland, Brendan Riordan, Michael Pillar, Alex Witkowski, Brian Storrie

  • E2 class, which features 175cc to 250cc two-stroke and 290cc to 450cc four-stroke motorcycles
