Rain-Soaked New England National: Grant Davis’s First ANEC Win; Steede Clinches Women
Round 7 of the American National Enduro Championship in West Glocester, Rhode Island, delivered Grant Davis’s first career National Enduro overall win and Korie Steede’s Pro Women’s championship clinch after a seventh straight win.
Round 7 of the American National Enduro Championship ran August 23, 2026, in West Glocester, Rhode Island. After a last-minute course rebuild, six tests in deteriorating rain produced Grant Davis’s (KTM) first career National Enduro overall win.
Davis finished ahead of Steward Baylor Jr and points leader Liam Draper. In Pro2, Jhak Walker swept all six tests. On the Women’s side, Korie Steede’s seventh straight win clinched the Pro Women’s championship.
Championship implications now point toward Burning Rock (September 12–13 on the National Enduro schedule). Trail Roamer will update the points picture after that round; for now, the Rhode Island rain race is the story — a first overall for Davis and a title lock for Steede.
