Ruth Holcomb and Griffin Hoppin didn't just add their names to the confirmed guest list for the 2026 Life Time Grand Prix with their performances this year, but have also marked themselves out as riders that could deliver a solid challenge to many of their rivals in the elite standings next year.
Even before the final invitations have been issued for 2026, the duo solidified their spots for the fifth season by winning the inaugural under-23 competitions in the six-race off-road series this season. Holcomb made a huge statement by sweeping up four race victories as the top U23 woman, while Hoppin earned highest finishes three times for U23 men.
