We’re getting closer to the start of the 2025 AMA Endurocross Championship and are busy working on a season preview, but wanted to share this quick edit of Cooper Abbott crushing his hot lap to take P3 in the 2024 Rd. 4 qualifier. Abbott would finish P4 on the night after going 4-7-3 in the motos, on his way to a P3 overall finish in the Championship.

After the Endurocross season ended Abbott headed over to Europe to race the full FIM SuperEnduro World Championship where he finished 7th overall with 5-7-6-9-6-10-6 finishes over the 7 rounds.

Abbott is back for the 2025 Endurocross Championship after making big changes over the summer with a switch to a Kawasaki program and CM Parts Racing

The story behind that crazy night in Idaho Falls… Round 3 of the 2024 AMA Endurocross series turned out to be a barnburner after Colton Haaker (Rockstar Energy Husqvarna Factory Racing) took out Trystan Hart (FMF KTM Factory Racing)at the finish of the final moto of the night after they had been battling hard through all 3 motos.

Hart, the defending 2024 Endurocross champion, came into the first night of the Idaho Falls doubleheader with a solid overall lead after winning the first 2 rounds over Jonny Walker (Triumph Factory Racing). Haaker, in his final season with Husqvarna and rumours swirling about his potential retirement at the end of the series, came in well back after going P6/P2 in the first 2 rounds. It was clear Haaker wanted the win in his home state and that he wanted to make a run for a final run at the title to round out a legendary career.

Haaker came out guns blazing in Rd. 3, winning the first 2 motos and building on the momentum he started in Prescott, AZ, the weekend prior. With Hart going 2/4 over the first 2 motos of the night it looked pretty likely that Haaker would take the win in Round 3, and he made sure of it by winning the final moto over Hart after an elbow to elbow battle in the rock garden just 2 corners before the finish.

Crossing the finish line jump Haaker switched lines after glancing back at Hart, chopping the Canadian’s front wheel mid-air and sending him hard to the dirt. Was it statement move before the next night’s 4th round? Almost certainly. Did he mean to take out Hart in the air? Only he knows, but that big left to right line switch on the finish jump after looking back sure made the move (if not the collision itself) intentional.

Luckily Hart was able to walk away, and he bounced back the next night to go 1/3/2 for 2nd place behind Walker and finish 1 place ahead of Haaker.

After that double-header Walker returned to Europe to prep for SuperEnduro and Hart went on to win the final 2 rounds to take his 2nd straight overall championship by 38 points over Haaker. Crazy times in Idaho!

Special thanks to the good folks at Husqvarna Canada for hooking me up with a verrrry sweet Norden 901 Expedition to use for chasing the race here at the Corduroy Enduro this weekend. I’ve had a Norden 901 in the past and loved it, but the Expedition was a perfect on and off-road ride this weekend. The stock heated grips and heated seat were especially choice with the freezing morning temps yesterday and today!

Thanks again to Marc and the whole crew at Husqvarna Canada!

Husqvarna Factory Racing’s Billy Bolt has claimed a memorable win at the Abestone Hard Enduro in Italy. Forming round three of the 2025 FIM Hard Enduro World Championship, Bolt dominated the two-day event, securing his first victory of the season in style.

Billy Bolt: “It’s been a great weekend. To win Saturday’s race and now win the main race on Sunday is brilliant. I can’t ask for much better than that. I’m really happy. To be honest, all weekend I never felt overly comfortable with the track. But it is the sort of terrain that tends to push you out of your comfort zone a lot. I worked hard and tried to limit mistakes, which really paid off here. In the main race I was charging the whole time. I was doing what I could to stay in front as much as possible. I’m happy to get the win after an amazing battle with Mani.”

1. Billy Bolt (Husqvarna) 12 laps, 2:18:23.178
