Rachel Gutish of Terre Haute, Indiana, has made history, becoming the first American rider to win an FIM EnduroGP championship.


Entering the final event of the series in Zschopau, Germany with an 11-point lead in the standings, Gutish proceeded to win both days, finishing the season with 145 points. That put Gutish 19 points clear of her Rieju Factory teammate Rosie Rowett of Great Britain.


Gutish became the first woman to ever win an EnduroGP round after taking the opener last season, on her way to an eventual second-place result. This year, Gutish was definition of consistency, finishing first in three rounds and second in the other five rounds to capture the overall 2025 women's title.

Gutish adds EnduroGP title to impressive resume, which includes several FIM ISDE gold medals

The American Motorcyclist Association congratulates Rachel Gutish for her historic FIM EnduroGP championship season, in which she became the first American to claim a title in the series’ history.

Competing for the Rieju Factory Team, Gutish entered the final round of the season on Saturday, Oct. 19, with an 11-point lead, and thanks to another victorious performance in Germany, locked up the championship.

“Gutish’s recent win is significant for the United States, and we’re proud of this young woman who has also been a staple on our dominant ISDE Women’s Trophy Team for the past several years,” AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman said. “She is an outstanding talent and represented her country well.”

Gutish finished the historic campaign with 145 total points, clearing second-place finisher and teammate Rosie Rowett of Great Britain by 19 points.

En route to the championship, Gutish secured victories in three of the last four events, capping off her dominant run for the title. It’s yet another outstanding achievement from Gutish, who has won four FIM International Six Day Enduro gold medals as a member of the U.S. Women’s World Trophy Team.

“It’s hard to put into words just how much this means to me, to be the first American to win an FIM EnduroGP World Championship,” Gutish said. “I’m proud of myself, proud of my country, and grateful to everyone who’s helped me and cheered me on from back home. It’s been a lot of work to get to this moment. I’m speechless, but super happy.”
