Ep. 489 - Daniel ”Chucky” Sanders

Winner of the 2025 Dakar Bike Rally and one of our great mates Daniel "Chucky" Sanders joins us for a yarn to reflect on the massive year he had in 2025.

Whilst taking us on tour for the super cross in Melbourne, Chucky joined us to take us through an incredible year in his career, including taking out his first Dakar and almost completing a perfect year in his championship super cross run. We touch on the grueling and rewarding parts of his epic win and also cover the recent activity that has been occurring at his home farm. Was great to finally get him on to tell us all about his win and hopefully he can smash it again this year, as he'll be racing in the 2026 Dakar as soon as this drops. Show the legend all the support and get behind to hopefully make it two in a row! Enjoy trendsetters.
