Current Australian Supercross Championship leader Josh Hill will rejoin RAM/Sycuan/RCH Suzuki for the 2014 season.

Hill, 24, announced the deal on DMXS Radio last night in the US, confirming he will ride the Monster Energy AMA Supercross and Lucas Oil Pro Motocross championships next year.

“There was a little bit of a hang up, getting signed up to RCH, wasn’t happening as soon as I wanted it to, but everything’s on the up and up there,” Hill explained.

“I just can’t wait for 2014. I’ll be a full year next year, I’m excited. I just have to work as hard as I can, get as fit as I possibly can and leave nothing on the table – I’m blessed to be riding for them.”

Following an injury-filled run, Hill showed promising progress in the closing rounds of the 2013 AMA SX series, finishing a season-best seventh at Salt Lake’s penultimate round.

Recently Hill has taken the Australian series by storm, winning two out of the past three races to hold a five-point lead in the series over Matt Moss with one round remaining in Toowoomba on 16 November.
