Endurance

The Toby Price Story

By: Toby Price

Narrated by: James Sweeny

The Australian bush has conjured up some crazy legends, but the rise and rise of two-time Dakar champion Toby Price is surely one of its best. Who knew that the remote town of Roto (pop. 41) would be the launching pad of one of the greatest motorsports athletes the world has seen, fit to tackle and triumph over the planet's most gruelling endurance race?

Toby Price has lived a truly remarkable life, filled with ups, downs and every bump in the road imaginable: a childhood racing prodigy from the tender age of two - there was hardly a paddock that could contain him. After tearing through the junior ranks, taking out titles in both dirt track and motocross, Toby was living the dream, turning pro at 16 and joining the formidable KTM Racing team. Soon he was turning heads internationally and tapped to take on the most forbidding enduro courses the sport could throw at him.

But the clock and the elements weren't his only adversaries. The death of his adored sister, Min, the tragic loss of mentors and rivals in the desert, countless broken bones and an accident that should have paralysed him for life - Toby's story is a study in staying true to yourself and following your passion to its ultimate end: rain, hail or shine. The person who emerged from the crucible of so many trials is now one of the most beloved figures in Australian sport, a kid from the country whose need for speed took him to the top of the podium - and he's not about to slow down now.

The pain we endure

I really enjoyed listening to the ups and downs he was able to overcome in his life full of injuries.

Balls of Steel!

I’ve been looking for a good Dakar Rally insight and was surprised to find that The Toby Price had one when he mentioned it on his IG. I think most moto people are a Toby fan and should be, and this gives a good story of his upbringing and what he has Endured to become Dakar champion. The chronicles of his injuries almost made me stopped listening, but I endured. Thanks Toby for your story!

Captures the trials and tribulations of the Moto life

I enjoyed every minute of this literary journey. Price captures a lot of the majesty of the Dakar and the overwhelming desire to ride a motorcycle. There is no pretense in this book, it is simply a tale about a man who cannot and will not quit until he achieves his goals. Wonderful audiobook!
