Francesc Moret took the Championship class victory ahead of Moorhouse, with Burts Crayston rounding out the podium.
On his social media, Richard said the following about his victory:
British Extreme Enduro Champion 🏆🏆
What a feeling! From being a little kid going to watch the British Extreme races and dreaming of one day being out there racing myself, to now winning the British Extreme Enduro Championship. It’s pretty special and something I’ll never forget.
A massive thank you to everyone who helped me today, and to all my sponsors, family, friends and everyone who’s supported me throughout the year. Without you guys, none of this would be possible ❤️
A little kid watching these races would have been pretty happy to know where we’d end up one day! 🏆
Thank you everyone ❤️
