Dream Racer

Climbing mountains, sailing the world, starting a business: many people have dreams. But most die a death at the hands of apathy, the human mind's uncanny ability to find excuses not to act, inertia, the barriers that life puts in one's way - job, mortgage, family, and other responsibilities.

This is the story of a man who refuses to let his dream die. He wants to race his motorbike in the 2010 Dakar Rally and will do everything humanly possible to make this happen.

Hi, I'm Curtis and I have been riding a motorbike since i was 4.

The KTM Sunny Corner Trail Bike Ride runs over two days 19-20 September, in the Sunny Corner State Forest. The non competitive arrowed ride features two loops covering 75km in the morning, and 50km in the afternoon, rain, hail or shine – possibly even snow!
