Event/Series Safety Support

The Kurt Caselli Foundation was established in 2013 in loving memory of Kurt Caselli, who tragically passed away while leading the 2013 Baja 1000. Our mission is to enhance the safety of riders and racers in the off-road motorcycling industry. We understand the inherent dangers of the sport, and our goal is to minimize those risks to the best of our ability through a three-part mission:

  1. Before Racing: We focus on developing and standardizing safety precautions to minimize risks outside of a rider’s control.

  2. During Racing: We develop and promote the use of safety equipment and policies to protect riders on the course.

  3. After Racing: We provide opportunities and support for racers to further their education and achieve career goals.
