Major Names from the U.S., France, and Spain Confirmed for GGN 2025!
The world’s largest enduro race— the Gotland Grand National (GGN)—now in its 42nd consecutive year, is proud to announce that several high-profile international riders will be competing in the event on Gotland.
“From California, USA, we’re welcoming Josh Mosiman, a major name in the enduro world,” says Conny Bohlin, CEO of Nordic Sport & Event, the organizer of GGN. “Josh is a journalist for Motocross Action Magazine and travels the world testing and reviewing different competitions. He will be coming to Gotland with a camera crew, another rider, and his wife. This collaboration was made possible through our Norwegian contact, Gjermund Frostad.”
SWECONand electric motorcycle manufacturer Stark Futureare continuing their collaboration with GGN, fielding an all-electric teamto promote sustainable motorsports. The team, competing on the Stark Varg, features several well-known riders:
- From France, none other than motocross legend and two-time world champion Sébastien Tortelli, a true icon of the sport.
- Also from France, David Herbreteauwill join the lineup.
- Representing Spain, popular enduro influencer Daniel Sánchez will compete.
- The team also includes Anna Palander, a professional stunt and motocross rider.
All four riders will compete on the electric Stark Varg, demonstrating that electric power can be both competitive and sustainable.
“Stark Varg, in partnership with SWECON, competed in 2024 with a different lineup. It will be exciting to see how this year’s team performs, now that they know the track and the format, and have further developed both the motorcycles and battery capacity,” adds Conny Bohlin.
“Our partnership last season was never intended to be a one-time project,” says Fredrik Rigö, Head of Marketing Communications at Swecon. “We continue to drive and develop this transition—not only in the construction industry but also in motorsports. Together with Stark Future, we’re demonstrating how enduro can become more sustainable through electrification and smarter material choices, while also helping GGN reduce its carbon footprint.”
The Gotland Grand Nationalis the world’s largest enduro competition, with over 3,000 ridersfrom about 15 countries participating annually. The 2025 editionwill take place October 23–25in Hejdeby, Gotland.
