RED BULL TYNE RIDE COMPETITORS ANNOUNCED

  • Some of the world’s best riders head to Newcastle for the return of Red Bull Tyne Ride, taking place 30 August
  • Hometown hero, Billy Bolt, returns from injury to thrill fans, alongside reigning champion, Jonny Walker
  • Multi-time Hard Enduro World Champion, Mani Lettenbichler, will take on the track for the first time, plus Red Bull Tyne Ride’s first female competitors, Rosie Rowett and Chloe Richardson

Red Bull announces the full rider line up for the 2nd Red Bull Tyne Ride, returning to Quayside on Saturday 30th August.

A collaboration between Red Bull and five-time FIM Super Enduro champion and Red Bull athlete, Billy Bolt, Red Bull Tyne Ride is the ultimate test of skill, speed, and endurance.

This year’s rider line-up includes some of the biggest names in Enduro racing, including one of the most successful riders of all time, Mani Lettenbichler. The KTM rider recently claimed his fourth successive Red Bull Erzbergrodeo title, and his sixth consecutive victory at Red Bull Romaniacs.

Elsewhere, reigning Tyne Ride champion, Jonny Walker, returns to Newcastle this time as a Triumph rider, keen to defend his crown following his previous win. New to this year’s lineup, British riders Rosie Rowett and Chloe Richardson are set to become the first female riders to take on the challenge.

Rowett originally hails from Sheffield and has been riding from an early age, with a career that’s seen her finish third in the 2024 FIM Women’s Enduro Championship, and more recently winning her debut race at the Expotrade FIM Women’s Enduro World Championship earlier in August.

Looking ahead to the competition, Rosie said: “I’m really excited to be involved in Tyne Ride and the opportunity for female riders to get involved in a Red Bull event. The course looks hard! But I can’t wait to give it a go and challenge myself.”

Swedish Rider Eddie Karlsson will also return to Quayside, riding for Stark. Karlsson wowed the crowds in Newcastle at the 2024 Red Bull Tyne Ride with his all-electric bike, this year powering him to 5th in the overall standings at the FIM SuperEnduro World Championship 2025.

Red Bull Tyne Ride brings together some of the world’s best riders in a series of head-to-head competitions, with 14 pros and 10 wildcards competing to win over three rounds, before the final head-to-head decider. The course stretches the length of Newcastle Quayside, complete with brutal technical challenges such as the boulder garden, log matrix, and Igloo Wall Ride turning point. Riders compete over three runs each round before the head-to-head decider.
