The 2023 Xross Hard Enduro Rally, the opening round of the 2023 Hard Enduro World Championship, took place in the beautiful mountainous region of Zlatibor, Serbia.
Mani Lettenbichler of Red Bull KTM emerged victorious, making it a back-to-back win at the Xross Hard Enduro Rally. Despite a commanding 25-minute lead, Mani set a blistering pace throughout the final day's race. Leading from the front and displaying exceptional skills, he proved yet again why he's dominated the last four Romaniacs. Taking the win 2:37s ahead, Mani was delighted: “Taking the overall win for the second time at Xross, I’m overwhelmed.”
Bulgarian rider Teo Kabakchiev battled hard on the final day, showing his fitness and grit to land the third place on the podium. After overcoming initial bike setup issues, Teo fought his way up: "Today was a battle, four guys were really close on time for third place. I gave my best and rode as good as I can and got it done."
Mario Roman, finishing eight minutes behind Lettenbichler, secured second place overall: "Today was an amazing day riding in good conditions. The first two hours were really technical and it was pretty intense. In the afternoon, I took it more easy to secure second place."
Trystan Hart and Michael Walkner also showed exceptional skills and determination throughout the rally. Despite a few ups and downs, Trystan finished a fighting fourth overall: “My sights are now set on the biggest extreme event of them all at Erzberg next.”
However, it was a tough rally for Billy Bolt, whose bike began to fail under pressure on the final day. Despite these issues, Billy remains positive: "I’ve got a lot of positives to take from the race, I’m really happy with the way I rode and how the bike is working but in the end, it wasn’t meant to be.”
In the Junior category, it was an exciting race with South African rider Matty Green taking the win, closely followed by two Brits, Mitch Brightmore and Robert Crayston.
