Video: Catching Up with 2019 Dakar Rally Champ Toby Price
ADV Pulse puts two-time Dakar Rally Champ Toby Price under the spotlight!
Toby Price stunned the world earlier this year by winning his second Dakar Rally championship, while riding with a freshly broken wrist. But should we really have been surprised after he achieved a podium at Dakar 2018 in his first race back after breaking a femur? With his combination of grit, determination, size, and skill, there is no doubt Toby Price will be the man to beat for many years to come.
We caught up with the Australian Champ at the recent KTM 790 Adventure launch in Morocco. Unfortunately, he was in no shape to test out KTM’s latest adventure bike while recovering from a recent wrist surgery, but he did give us an update on his training and told us a few stories from the Dakar Rally.
During our interview, the KTM factory rider details how he emerged victorious with a serious injury in the world’s most grueling race. Plus we get some insights into how KTM managed to pull off 18 consecutive wins in the Dakar. Toby also discusses the wager he made with fellow KTM factory rider Laia Sanz and we see what happens when you bet against the Queen of Dakar.

haha Laia’s forte is definitely not with scissors. it’s going to take a while for that ‘hairstyle’ to look normal. Great interview!
Good stuff!
