Why race in the Dakar?
Why not?? I have raced in the local ‘Finke Desert Race’ 2007/2008 and have always followed Dakar and thought in the back of his mind…one day…! I am very passionate about off-road racing and I love adventure. Any challenge that takes me to the physical limits motivate me even more. I thrive on accepting hard challenges, particularly those where most people wouldn’t attempt. Promote fundamental unique aspects of Alice Springs – Tourism, indigenous lifestyles and cultures.
