Josep Garcia to race Billy Bolt at 2026 SuperEnduro World Championship Rnd1 

EnduroGP World Champion Josep Garcia is all set to take on Billy Bolt at 2026 SuperEnduro World Championship round one this weekend in Gliwice, Poland  – add Hard Enduro World Champion Mani Lettenbichler and EnduroCross champion Jonny Walker and we're all set for a spicy start to the indoor season.

In this era of increasingly specialised sports, having the three major enduro discipline world champions – not to mention the new EnduroCross champion – under one roof and racing each other is something of a miracle.

The throwback to another time we thought we’d lost will be a reality  this weekend, Saturday 13, at round one of the 2026 FIM SuperEnduro World Championship in Poland with Josep Garcia signed-up to race Billy Bolt, Mani Lettenbichler and Jonny Walker. That makes 18 world and 2 AMA titles on the line.

Garcia’s debut

The opening round of ’26 in Poland will amazingly mark Garcia’s debut in the FIM SuperEnduro World Championship, and his only scheduled appearance this season (despite talk of him competing the full series, Enduro21 understands) for KTM.
The Spanish rider's record in the EnduroGP SuperTest is as far as we need to look for his credentials on the logs and rocks and we fully expect the same fireworks from him in Gliwice next weekend.

It’s a cracking prospect when you also add into the mix both X-Grip Racing riders, Mitch and Ash Brightmore (who also bring world titles in the Junior categories to the table) plus proven race winner Dominik Olszowy on the Rieju and Eddie Karlsson on the Stark.

Record entry - nearly 100 riders

Sport Up Agency, the series promoters, say they have close to 100 riders registered across Prestige, Junior, Youth and FIM Europe classes which is the highest early count in the history of SuperEnduro. Enduro21 was expecting to see at least one North American rider jumping across the pond with Cooper Abbott on the rider list with the Kawasaki. But the finances are not there at present so it looks like we will not see any of the US guys this SuperEnduro season. 

Either way it is going to be a great start to the indoor enduro season in Europe, and easily the most competitive racing we’ve seen for several seasons.

Tomasz Gagat, Championship Promoter & CEO of Sport UP Agency: “SuperEnduro is growing at an exceptional pace. Bringing three reigning World Champions together for the opening round – including Josep Garcia’s first-ever and exclusive appearance in the series – is something SuperEnduro has never seen before. The record number of entries proves the global momentum behind SuperEnduro. We are expecting the most competitive season in years.”

Round one is at Gliwice, about an hour from Krakow, on December 13. Tickets for all rounds are here: https://superenduro.org/tickets/
