YOUNG TOPS XL
LAGARES EXTREME
ENDURO
S
outh African Wade Young emerged victori-
ous at the XL Lagares Extreme Enduro in
Portugal, May 28-29. The Sherco team rider
headed a strong field that also included KTM's
Jonny Walker and Alfredo Gomez.
Young didn't set the world on fire during
Saturday's prologue where he placed fourth.
Gomez got things started with the win ahead of
his teammate Walker. But when the real racing
got going Sunday, Young got to business and
jumped out to the early lead and never really looked
back.
Young had plenty of room to spare when the
checkered flag waved. He finished approximately
15 minutes ahead of Walker.
Fourth place went to Pol Tarres (Beta) and fifth to
Manni Lettenbichler (KTM). CN
