2025 TDS Enduro Recap!
There are many races on the calendar, but there's only one TDS Enduro.
It's raw. It's rowdy. It's a community at its finest. And for us at WTB, it feels like home.
The People Make the Party
We've been part of TDS since the early days—before the trails stretched into double digits before the word "enduro" was printed on every race flyer. Back then, it was just a gathering of friends who loved to ride fast, build big features, and camp out in the woods with good beer and even better stories. And somehow, through all the growth, the chaos, and the evolution, the heart of TDS hasn't changed one bit.
What Makes TDS Enduro Special?
This event is about so much more than racing. Sure, the courses are demanding, also of them blind, and packed with fresh features that push riders to their limit. But the true magic of TDS lies in the people. It's the volunteers who show up year after year with shovels and stoke. It's the Sanchez family opening their land and lives to the community. It's the moto crew, the kitchen crew, the riders, the friends, and the fans who bring the place to life.
Blind Racing at Its Finest: Little Practice, Full Commitment
For WTB, TDS represents everything we love about mountain biking. It’s gritty, creative, unpredictable, and overflowing with soul. It’s the kind of event where riders throw on mismatched gloves and rip into a stage with no idea what’s coming next, because that’s where the good stuff happens. It’s about trusting your tires, reading the trail in real time, and laughing through the blown corners.
Volunteers, Fans, and the People Behind the Magic
But what makes it truly special is getting to experience it all alongside our athletes and extended WTB family. We spent the weekend camped out with our riders, swapping lines and life updates between stages, dialing in bikes at the pits, and cheering each other on from tape to tape. From longtime team members to fresh faces, TDS is where we reconnect with the people who bring our brand to life on the trails every day.
TDS isn’t just a place to test gear—it’s where we build relationships, celebrate a shared passion, and grow together as a community. Watching our athletes push their limits and represent WTB with grit and heart was the highlight of the weekend.
Vigilante Tires: The Go-To Choice for Changing Conditions
When the rain rolled in and the trails turned slick, the WTB Vigilante tire quickly became the tire of choice across the board. Its fast-rolling center tread and aggressive side knobs gave riders the confidence to charge through greasy corners without backing off. For those looking for even more bite, a few athletes bumped up the grip factor with Verdict fronts and Judge rears—dialing in maximum traction when it mattered most.
Featured Tires at TDS Enduro 2025:
-
WTB Vigilante: Best for versatile trail and enduro conditions with cornering confidence
-
WTB Verdict: Front-focused traction for unpredictable terrain
-
WTB Judge: Rear tire with high-volume grip for ultimate control
And it paid off! WTB athlete Amy Morrison took the win in the women’s field with her signature speed and precision. She was joined by fellow WTB riders Syra Fillat in 4th, Ainsley Haggart in 5th, and Sophie Allen in 6th—stacking the top ranks with a crew of seriously talented women. On the men’s side, Marco Osborne brought home the top step, charging hard all weekend and making it look way too fun.
The WTB Community at TDS Enduro
We’re proud to have been part of TDS since the beginning, and even prouder to still be here, covered in dust and grinning ear to ear. Huge thanks to Ron and the entire TDS crew for building something so special—and for keeping it unapologetically wild.
Until next year, we’ll be dreaming of blind racing, fire pits, and fast friends.
