we listen to every weekend on d. w. the intense passion for the arduous cross country rally raised life. people often telling me that i don't smart enough, but give me a good track and i desire to go it alone. even in the most challenging situations. when i did my 1st couple of at least i looked at what was the 1st people in this world. and it was easy to find don said it was the and a love for the molly moto clash,
1:17 pm
swear without team support of right or must rely on sheer grid to survive each state. i think the biggest, the basic needs bedding on yourself and then putting all your finances into something like this. knowing that this course is very well the most. you sit out on a motor sport athlete competing in cross country. rodney, this is across the world, and most normally i've been at the duct o'reilly into my little category one of the few. and instead of actually ventured into that category, it's kind of my dream, the for and what i think is for me to make it to the car and see what did i need? 8 what it is about 5 am on a friday too early for most people, but not for us. she's round renee. the indian off road riley rate athlete is all set for a morning of intense training at his off paste racing academy training ground. i
1:18 pm
see she has a simple to compete in as many doc her rallies as he can going at low and as a privateer without the support of a factory team. it's a hard journey that's involved putting his job in the merchant, navy, and switching professions to become a writing coach, training other riley hopefuls, but also training himself for his next love affair with the sand. sand has already picking the rail, teaching lessons and putting you any of this is really teach you not to take anything for granted. like, you know, your cruising one moment and the next moment deal. if it onto face down test assist . first started off road motorcycle in 2015 and was instantly hooked by the end of the following year. pecan rallying competed in his 1st off road rally re defense the raid to himalaya, and decided he'd like to see how far he could go in the sport. all alone his own.
1:19 pm
it's one of the fewest for to as an amateur, you can go and race events, the top estimates in the world. and when i did my 1st couple of at least i looked at what was the toughest thing to move in this it was easy to find. don said it was the doctor. and he began attacking his goals with a single minded focus, even when he was on duty, etc. for me i, i thought it wasn't my life. and then it just became a crisis like a big difference. now, i'm just, i've made my peace with it. i was a very big guy and i me see you're going to can just as in this week and he said ok . and he went to ship and he was back in 3 months live in cages later, just because i mean, we started in december to lose that weight for us. she. she was a huge comfort that his wife, tanya had his back no matter what. but it was the challenge he set himself rookie
1:20 pm
to dock her competitor in 5 years. that dominated his thoughts and motivated his every move from that moment on. a steely determination kicked in that would serve him well. especially in his 1st marathon events, the africa eco race in 2021. i had him to hand photo. let's say i would have thought about was that i would get something like dingey 2 weeks before that idea. and that's what happened. and i was in the hospital for 2 weeks starting from like 11th of december, i remember and then at least starting 2nd of january. so i came out of the hospital, the 27th of december. and i was clearly ordered by the doctors that i should not be going through this valley, but for a cease giving up before the event even began simply wasn't an option. the question to really ask is if you stop no, no, would you be able to live without of that decision? and i think that's, that's how all i have kind of learned to make decisions now. and that's what this
1:21 pm
port has talk to you. because if i give up now, okay, that's an easy way of knowing i would feel good for, for a while. but then, what about the model of that decision, instead of making recovering from illness, was just one worrying aspect. as a privateer on a shoe string budget, the motorcycle he was writing was a compromise. not a full blown rally raised machine, but a k t. m for 50 x c m enduro bike with an extra fuel tank. 8 days into the rally, things got tricky. i had some issues with the motorcycle and i was running a fever. so i have to start the place where i stopped. was there to like literally middle of nowhere. and because it was in a medical emergency, i wasn't software, don't have to wait for the sleep to get there. but the sleep truck only got to me the next morning. so i spent the whole night in the, in the court as a,
1:22 pm
as the sun went down, i started getting really cold, chilly, and there was a sandstone. and the other thing i have to worry about was then scorpions and snakes from the desert. because i saw a few just understands that i did my best to put in to you was what it was. somebody would have training, i have even from my background as a, as the muddiness. so yeah, i think it's an adventure. i would join him, but on my life the adventure only strengthened his resolve to compete in the car. and he began training for the events tough this category, the molly moto class, which riders compete without a support crew. instead they have a box with spears and tools, and surface and repair their motorcycles on the go on their own. my 1st experience was that of ice cream. so i don't because if there's a team in move together, do you have other ideas with you? so it's a very lonely experience in the beginning. one of the things i quickly video lice,
1:23 pm
then it's probably the mistakes that the most 1st time was in the americas. if you keep pushing yourself to go through that entire checklist every day at the expense of the rest, that's not a good strategy to have because the machine will take a lot more than actually that she's got into the rhythm of going solo though, until things unraveled on stage 5 of the rally, i vent order noon and i stayed on my head. this was not a very high speed crash because i landed on my head. i think the impact was very high, and then i tried to get up. i immediately blacked out. so consequently, the 10 minutes later i was and if that the injury meant that he missed 3 stages of the rally, but was allowed to finish the event under the car. experienced category advice was okay, everything's clear, but it's
1:24 pm
a concussion in the end. so it will show up 72 hours later as well. so that documentation wasn't like okay, i've been going be cautious. so yeah, i really enjoyed the rest of the overall it was, it was a good experience to finish that i did not finish. i was hoping for, so i was kind of sad about it. like i finished the card yet. i was kind of, i had mixed feelings because i wasn't that the actually finished was 40 but yeah, that's something to could i can explain. plus, each has accepted that injuries, are par for the course of both my sort of the separated me 7 millimeters and 11 millimeters, both sides and your particular one of them in fractures. and you know me injuries dca. there's been a lot. but like i said, i've been lucky so far that they haven't been injured is that i have required extensive surgery or anything or put me out for like more than maybe half
1:25 pm
a year. but the real barrier he's had to leap across is the hurdle in his mind. i think the biggest mentor that is of basically building on yourself and then putting all your finances into something like this, knowing that the score very well to put you in austin. as a private to your funding, the money for racing is a constant battle and the costs of competing in the car are massive. in 2021, she's funded 90 percent of his car contain himself. things have since changed. this here looks looks the problem promising on the front. so i think it's going to be exactly the opposite. i would hazard, like 90 percent, would be sponsored and then 10 percent, who am i from the probably the tier life means a she is used to doing things on his own. he's his own nutritionist and fitness trainer things. his own mechanic and everything happens in his apartment or at the off road academy, he found it nearby. i would like to be one of the
1:26 pm
best motorsport quoted other than i can. and that's what i'm working today. you need to build that confidence with this soil and then you'll be open to the the, i don't know whether just me or the bike. i need to get some more of the bike is yours. oh, i lost it. it's not the bike. i think it's really hard on us, but at the same time he's also knows when to call him back and he's been so supportive from the start of my journey. i wouldn't be that i am or that i want to go without. she should like, when you use the front and that is a legend, right? so explaining with whom is animalistic, lend partner learning from him is update on the want him to achieve whatever that
1:27 pm
he wants to achieve in head, whichever way we can. and so that's the ultimate goal, it's this is a search and a god. it's does a for the 2020 for the car actually has been accepted in the moto class, not the molly motor category. so he will have the luxury of a support team. but he's got a sense of unfinished business when it comes to the events, most punishing category and hopes for another outing. in the molly moto class, one day given the cartridge surface, so stuff kind of hard to do it. so i've always wanted to do different things. in the meantime, he's training in earnest for his next battle with the dealings and deserts with tanya by his side. because he got old tomorrow and accidents. of course, the odds that much higher in motorsport. just think of the, the i new go with the flow, i guess, to a siege the months of hard work,
1:28 pm
the financial burden of the car and the brutality of the event are simply part of the journey. worth it in his endless quest to reach an environment in which he truly drives people from telling me that i don't have enough. but give me a good track. i'm getting i think the feeling of not just finishing but the feeling of just finishing everything. really good and i found, remember seeing those i knew that exists the motion that is on the looking for the french. this is
