ISDE 2015 Photo Gallery: Day 6

Team USA’s Ryan Sipes made history by becoming the first American to win the individual overall award at the International Six Days Enduro, which this year was held in Kosice, Slovakia.

After leading for most of the event, Sipes capped his week off by winning today’s final motocross test over closest rival Daniel Milner of Australia. Here are a few photos to recap the day.
