Indian Rider C. S Santosh to Make his Debut at the 2015 Dakar Rally

C S Santosh, who we all know so well in the national motorsport circuit, is on his way to an epic journey. Santosh, having won virtually every Indian off-road bike events, is now heading internationally and not just any event but the one that is the pinnacle of endurance racing - the Dakar Rally.

The 31-year old has many accolades to his name including Indian motocross national champion, Raid De Himalaya winner and Desert Storm winner but Dakar will be a whole new ball game. Santosh will head to the Dakar 2015 riding a KTM 450 Rally bike which will be sponsored by Red Bull.

Preparations for the race are already underway and Santosh will be up against riders with far more experience, but preparations are already in full swing. He will leave from India in January 2015 for the endurance race, but for the time being though, he is training at his off-road riding coaching facility - Big Rock which is located near Bengaluru.
