2025 AMBITIONS
B.T.: “From a young age, I dreamed about the Dakar. I didn’t think that I could be part of it, but as soon as it seemed even slightly possible, I was in 200%. It’s great to be able to share this adventure with my family and friends and also motorcyclists from my country. I try to provide information and talk to every competitor fan on all topics related to the Dakar during my preparation for this wonderful adventure. My main goal is to reach the finish line in Shubaytah, to ride the 48h chrono now in completely different conditions and much longer to the magnificent dunes of Empty Quarter and enjoy the Finish line. And I will also keep an eye on the veteran category. A podium in this class is doable and would be my fulfilment.”
