Billy Uhl

Billy Uhl

Billy Uhl (born April 22 1950 in Wooster, Ohio) was a top American motorcycle enduro competitor. He represented the United States in the International Six Day Trials in the 1970s, winning five gold medals.

The son of a motorcycle dealer, he grew up in Idaho and competed in several different off road motorcycling disciplines including motocross, trials, dirt track oval racing and hillclimbs. In 1969, Uhl became the youngest ISDT gold medal winner at the age of nineteen. After his retirement from competition, he became active in designing off road trails as well as becoming an advocate for responsible off road vehicle usage.

He was inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame in 2007.
