The Italian team and its rider
Graham Jarvis from the UK will take on the
toughest Extreme Enduro races as well as the
Indoor Enduro World Championship aboard the
newly released Husaberg TE 300 2-stroke model
with immediate effect.
The team,
managed by Marco Caribotti, has already a
long-standing relationship with former top Trials
rider and nowadays top Extreme Enduro rider Graham
Jarvis. They have been working together over the
last three years establishing Graham as top
contender in any Enduro event that can be called
“tough” or “extreme”.
35 year old Jarvi s, from Sturry in Canterbury,
won his first Trial race at the age of 10 and
worked his way up to World Championship level
where he was a regular contender for top results
from 1996 on. He claimed his first World
Championship round win in 2001 and won the
infamous Scott Trial no less than 9 times.
As the sport of Extreme Enduro became more and
more popular some years ago Graham decided to give
it a go and found the support of a well set-up
team in Italy, which will from now on operate
under the name of “Flite Extreme Husaberg Racing
Team”.
As Graham quickly established himself as one of
the top riders in Extreme Enduro his list of
achievements is already quite impressive:
- Winner Red Bull Romaniacs 2008
- 2nd place Hell’s Gate 2008
- 2nd place Red Bull Hare Scramble at Erzberg 2009
- 2nd place Hell’s Gate 2010
- 2nd place Red Bull Romanaics 2010
Nevertheless Graham, together with his team, felt
i t was time for a major change in terms of bike,
in order to take the next step of making the
podium and especially the top spot more
consistently and also becoming a real podium
contender in the Indoor Enduro World Championship.
Graham’s object of desire was clear this July as
Husaberg, for the first time in its 22-year
history, launched its 2-stroke models. The TE 300,
to be more precise, is now his weapon of choice.
The team’s first outing on the new machine will
be the Extreme Lagares race in Portugal on October
17th 2010.
After this first test under racing conditions the
team will fully focus on the Indoor Enduro World
Championship 2011, starting on November 27th in
Genoa, Italy.
Husaberg welcomes Graham Jarvis and the Flite
Extreme crew to its ever growing family and is
looking forward to a great and successful
partnership.
