“This is a really cool and exciting change in my career, the start of a new chapter for me. It’s an honour to lead the GASGAS brand back into enduro and I really want to do everyone proud. By joining this project from the beginning, I feel like I can really help to bring some value by using my experience to develop the bike and to show people what we are all about. There’s a freshness and a lot of energy about everything. I’m excited for people to see what we’ve been working on. Everyone that knows me knows how competitive I am. Racing in new colours definitely makes me more determined to challenge for more race wins.
Being a GASGAS rider means I get to race their exciting new enduro models as well as train on their amazing trial machines. Before I began competing in enduro, my trial career started with GASGAS. I won the European Trial Championship with them in 2004, so it’s very important to me to create something special now. Trial is still a big part of my life, the perfect way to prepare for the WESS Enduro World Championship. I’m already enjoying riding my TXT RACING 300 and know that I have the best bike available to sharpen my skills. Although this year has been different because of coronavirus, I do feel ready to get back racing. I’m really looking forward to returning to competition as a GASGAS rider.”

“For a brand like GASGAS, there is no better rider than Taddy Blazusiak to lead it back into enduro competition. Taddy needs little introduction, his many successes say everything needed about his determination, professionalism and drive. It is no secret that Taddy is now one of enduro’s more senior racers his experience and focus, and his want to keep pushing both himself and those around him to be the very best they can be. It will be invaluable to GASGAS during the first steps of the enduro program. Both in competition and when involved in development and testing, Taddy will bring a huge amount to GASGAS. We are sure he’ll play a central role in driving the brand forward in the years ahead.”
