TT winner has completed grueling race twice in last three years
Isle of Man TT winner, James Hillier is planning to contest the grueling Dakar Rally for a third time next year.
The rider from Ringwood has announced he intends compete in the OBM (Malle) category in 2026.
This, he says on social media, will mean he will be by himself and will be 'responsible for all maintenance and service of the bike between stages.'
Now, Hillier is on the lookout for any people or organisations which could help financially support him for the challenge.
Back in 2023, he became the first TT winner to take part in and complete the infamous race before battling through mechanical issues, illness and injury to finish the challenge again earlier this year.
