Ready to kick off his 2018 World Enduro Super Series (WESS) campaign, Billy Bolt is keen to show that youth is every bit a match for experience in this year‰Ûªs title chase.

At just 20 years of age, Bolt heads the charge when it comes to Enduro‰Ûªs bright young talents, hungry to steal a march on some of the sport‰Ûªs more established stars.

Following a successful education in Trials, Bolt switched to Enduro and specifically Hard Enduro two years ago. Testing the waters during 2016, he instantly turned heads with some standout performances that led to a coveted factory ride with Husqvarna Motorcycles for 2017. Securing top eight results at Erzbergrodeo Red Bull Hare Scramble, Red Bull Romaniacs and Red Bull 111 Megawatt, Bolt feels that this year it‰Ûªs time to shine.

Confident in his abilities, Billy understands that this is still only year two of his professional career and that there is always more to learn. Credit: Future7Media
