The 2023 Grinduro series came to a memorable close in Japan capping a year featuring 6 events in 5 countries.

Forget about the likes and mentions and incessant notifications: sometimes you just have to silence it all and chase your buddy down the mountain. And maybe throw a few shapes while you're at it.
