Lightning Bolt
By Team TMX on 6th Mar 23
Factory Husqvarna Racing’s Billy Bolt has been on an absolute tear in 2023, winning pretty much every enduro event he has lined up at bar one – and that second place was behind Brad Freeman in a round of the British Sprint Enduro Championship so we cannot be too critical of that performance either.
As things stand, the marvellously moustachioed 25-year-old Brit leads the FIM SuperEnduro World Championship and ACU British Extreme Enduro Championship and has also won a round of the ACU British Extreme Super Series.
By the time you read this, it’s likely that he’ll have wrapped up the 2023 SuperEnduro world title as with only one round remaining, Billy sits on a convincing lead – he’s 36 points ahead of Jonny Walker - having only dropped five championship points so far. That’s four Superpole wins, 11 Prestige Final victories and one third-place. Dominant is the only word that works.
Outdoors he’s been equally as brilliant and we have to say that we can’t wait to see him perform in the FIM Hard Enduro World Championship that kicks off with Serbia’s Xross in the middle of May. Can he be stopped? We wouldn’t bet against it!
There has only been one thing more magnificent in the SuperEnduro series than Billy Bolt and that's his moustache
