Billy Bolt (Husqvarna - GB): “I’m so happy
to win round one of WESS at Extreme XL
Lagares. There were some tense times at the
end when I was waiting for the results but it’s
a great feeling to stand on the top step of the
podium. I started third today and tried to find
a comfortable pace early on. The riverbeds
were incredibly slippery but I just took the
course as it was and remained focused on a
long race ahead of me. On the second lap I
pushed on and worked the back-markers to
my advantage and caught Jonny as a result.
Winning the opening round of WESS is fan-
tastic and with just three weeks to go until
round two at Erzbergrodeo Red Bull Hare
Scramble I’m excited to keep this momentum
rolling in Austria.”
Cody Webb enjoyed his first time compet-
ing at Extreme XL lagares. The American,
despite having never experienced a race quite
like it, put in a superb performance to finish
sixth overall, earning himself 570 champion-
ship points.
Cody Webb: “I really enjoyed myself today.
