HUSQVARNA’S BILLY BOLT EXTENDS HIS CHAMPIONSHIP LEAD WITH A VICTORY  AT SUPERENDURO ROUND TWO

Following his win at spherical one in France, Husqvarna Factory Racing star Billy Bolt has put in one other dominating TremendousEnduro efficiency, this time topping the qualifying Superpole earlier than successful two out of three races contained in the Tauron Arena in Poland. Earning 60 championship factors aboard his FE 350, Bolt prolonged his lead within the 2024 FIM TremendousEnduro World Championship.

Billy Bolt: “I’m pretty happy really with a 1-2-1. I rode well in the second race – I just made a few bad decisions and took too long to get to the front. I think everyone was expecting an eruption when I got back to the pits but I was pretty chilled to be honest. I knew I rode well, but I just didn’t put myself in the right place on the track. Overall though I was happy with my riding the whole night and I got better each race, I think. I switched up my line in the rocks on the final race so I think that made a difference and gave me some breathing room on what was a difficult track that Jonny pushed me hard on all night. I’ll keep working over Christmas and come back swinging in Germany.”

SHOT OF THE WEEK

I discovered this shot gathering spider spooge within the storage. It was shot following the Glen Helen MXGP in 1992 and we had been testing a number of the ‘works’ machines that had made the trek over from Europe. The professionals made this bounce seem like cake, however for an enduro rider it was fairly stinking hairball. Fran Kuhn captured me manning up on a really potent CR500.

Kevin Hart to Show off His Custom Cars at the LA Auto Show

Actor and comedian Kevin Hart will be showcasing his impressive collection of custom-built cars at the upcoming Los Angeles Auto Show. This will be the first time that all 11 of his vehicles will be displayed together for the public to see.

It has taken Hart more than 10 years to curate his collection, which he fondly refers to as his “Kollection.” Each car was meticulously designed according to his personal preferences, with many of them centered around a unique theme. As a big fan of horror movies, some of his cars even feature designs inspired by this genre.

HART ATTACKS TKO WITH A FULL KNOCKOUT PUNCH

Hart tops Bolt at Red Bull Tennessee Knockout
Lettenbichler rounds out the podium

For the second year in a row, Trystan Hart from FMF KTM Factory Racing was the champion at the Red Bull Tennessee Knockout (TKO). This was Hart’s third win in the last four years, and he dominated the 2023 event by winning three out of the four rounds of racing on the challenging Trials Training Center terrain. Hart also won the AMA Grand Championship for Extreme Off-Road racing and the US Hard Enduro Series championship. Billy Bolt from Husqvarna Factory Racing finished in second place, 23 seconds behind Hart, and Mani Lettenbichler from Red Bull KTM Factory Racing took the third spot on the podium.

The Sunday event consisted of three rounds of racing for the fifty-six riders who earned a spot. It started with Knockout round one on the eleven-mile “long course”. Hart set the fastest time with a time of 47 minutes and 17 seconds. The relatively dry conditions provided more traction than usual on the rocky terrain, resulting in faster times. Jordan Ashburn, the 2022 GNCC Champion, surprised many with a second-place finish, and Lettenbichler took third place. Will Riordan from RPM KTM and Cody Webb rounded out the top five. Bolt, LeBlond, Matthew Green from South Africa, Walker, and Alfredo Gomez finished sixth through tenth, respectively.

Billy Bolt: “It’s awesome, the crowd was insane the whole way around the track and you could barely hear the bike out there so that was pretty sick to see so many people out here supporting the race. As far as the race went, it was a struggle, I felt the pressure from behind just about the whole race to be honest. Jonny and Mani were on my wheel and that made it hard to concentrate and not make any mistakes. Trystan was nearly mistake free and opened a gap early on and I could not make it back to him.” Photo Kenny King

A last-chance qualification race took place on the straight rhythm course for the four riders who missed the top thirty. Pro Hillclimb racer Logan Cipala secured the final spot to advance to the second round.

In the second round, the thirty-one riders were placed into five groups for head-to-head racing. Four groups had six riders, while the fifth group had seven riders, including the last-chance race winner. The riders tackled the long loop with an additional mile of extremely challenging sections. The top four finishers from each group qualified for the twenty-rider main event, with the group winners earning front row starting positions.

• Hart won group one after battling with Bolt. US Trials Champion Pat Smage and James Flynn finished third and fourth to secure their spots in the main event.
• LeBlond won group two in a close battle with Ashburn. Colton Haaker and Gauge Logan-Key also advanced to the main event.
• Lettenbichler dominated group three. Green finished second, while Quinn Wentzel from Rieju and Tim Apolle from Beta took third and fourth place, respectively.
• Group four was won by Jonny Walker from the UK. Riordan finished second. Logan Bolopue from Sherco and Daniel Lewis from Beta secured the last two spots in this group.
• Webb won group five over Spain’s Gomez. David Knight, a multi-time Erzberg winner, finished third, and Mason George earned the final spot in the main event, his first TKO appearance.

The main event returned to the short course for a 35-minute plus one lap race, which took 44 minutes and 34 seconds for Hart to complete. Lettenbichler took the lead into the woods, with Hart and Bolt close behind. Hart and Bolt passed Lettenbichler before reaching the critical Red Bull Ravine hill climb. At the top, Bolt lost momentum and Lettenbichler collided with his rear wheel, causing him to flip over backward. Lettenbichler lost several positions as his bike tumbled down the hill. Hart quickly pulled ahead of the field, maintaining a 12-second lead over Bolt at the start of the second lap. Hart gradually extended his lead to as much as 45 seconds before easing off on the final lap to secure a 24-second victory.

On the final lap, Bolt, Lettenbichler, and Walker were separated by less than ten seconds. The order remained the same until the finish. Webb finished fifth with a strong performance. LeBlond recovered after getting held up on the first lap and finished in sixth place. Riordan was the last rider on the lead lap in seventh. Gomez took eighth place on his Rieju. Ashburn finished ninth after recovering from a crash in the first turn with Green. Smage completed the top ten in his first Hard Enduro event of the season after winning the US Trials championship.

Trystan Hart Secures 2023 U.S. Hard Enduro Championship with Silver Kings Victory

Trystan Hart: “The race went really well here in Idaho, not a lot of drama for me – I caught the guys early on and then Cody [Webb] and I battled for a bit before he had a huge high-side down the hill. The track got harder and harder closer to the finish and I was just coasting on the trails, which I don’t normally do, but I was conserving energy in case there were any more surprises. It was a good race, I was so nervous bringing it home!”

Trystan Hart from FMF KTM Factory Racing has successfully defended his AMA U.S. Hard Enduro Championship title by winning the Silver Kings Hard Enduro race. This year, Hart has maintained his winning form from last season and continued his perfect record in Round 6 at the Silver Mountain Ski Resort, also securing the AMA West Extreme Regional Championship.

Hart took the lead during the early stages of the Main Event, finishing with a total time of 2:52:36 and securing a winning margin of 40 seconds. This victory marks his third consecutive crown in the series.

Ryder LeBlond: “It was a gnarly day on the mountain here at the Silver Kings Hard Enduro. This was definitely a real hard enduro – probably one of the toughest ones I’ve done in the United States so far, it was just a long, brutal beat down. We had some good battles all day, which was fun, and at the end there I was able to break away from the group and grab P2 for the day, which is awesome.”

Ryder LeBlond from Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing finished in second place, with Cody Webb from Sherco taking the final spot on the podium. Despite a detour that cost him significant time, Colton Haaker put on a solid performance and secured fourth place at the Silver Kings event.

Colton Haaker: “Super steep, super long, and I got some cramps. I had a great time, just had a small mishap at the first checkpoint where I went down the silver route for about 20 minutes and had to double-back to hit the gold run. I was in the lead, then that put me back to 15th, charged through the race, and pulled it in for a fourth-place finish. All in all, great day, and the bike was awesome.”
