Price wins in first ride at Tattersall’s Finke Desert Race
22 year old Toby Price from Singleton in News South Wales has taken victory in the bikes competition at the 2010 Tattersall’s Finke Desert race.Price becomes only the third rider in the 35 year history of the race to win at his first attempt.
Other first time winners were Geoff Curtis (Yamaha) in the first race ever held in 1976, and David Armstrong (Kawasaki) in 1987.
Price, from Singleton in New South Wales on his #587 KTM crossed the finish line in Alice Springs today taking it relatively easily on his trip back after having a commanding 10 minute 13.6 second lead at the overnight break.
In second place was another KTM rider Todd Smith (KTM #
from Condobolin in New South Wales with a total time of 4 hours 13 minutes 23.38 seconds.Smith placed 8th in last year’s event that was his first time in the Finke. Smith had a hard trip down to Finke yesterday, crashing and then having difficulty starting his bike at a fuel stop. He finished nearly ten minutes behind the winning rider.
Third on the podium was local Alice Springs rider and 2006 Finke winner Ryan Branford aboard his # X99 Honda CRF450R who battled all the way back to Finke with an inoperative rear brake and a buckled front rim that luckily did not cause a flat tyre.
Branford recorded the fastest time back to Finke today taking 2 hours 4 minutes and 14.81
seconds.Price’s winning time for his inaugural Finke victory was 4 hours 3 minutes 25.62 seconds
“I have no words to describe my win at Finke,” said Price. “It’s an awesome feeling. To just survive Finke is a challenge in itself, and for these guys who do it all the time it’s hats off to them they’re amazing.”
“I qualified 3rd in prologue, and was only one second off Ben Grabham’s time.”
“On the way down to Finke it was fairly smooth and good going, the whoop section was pretty hard, but on the way back to Alice Springs, the track got chopped up big, and thankfully I had a good lead, and I could preserve the bike where necessary, and make sure it got me home and give KTM another win.”
“I got into second pretty quickly on day one behind Grabbo, and I didn’t catch too much dust. By the end of the 230 odd kilometres riding into Finke, I could see his dust so I knew I was on the pace to ride near him.”
“Grabbo was around 8 kilometres short of the finish line and engine failure stopped his race, but if he didn’t DNF it would have been a pretty close race into Finke between the two of us. It was hard riding past Grabbo as my team mate, especially since I was all behind him getting his forth Finke Desert Race win in a row, but I’m sure he will come back bigger and stronger next year.”
“On day two for the return leg from Finke to Alice Springs, I had a ten minute lead on the competition. I just rode consistent and picked my sections off one by one. I had a few off moments on the track, but the bike handled well and I felt good so it was a solid package.”
“On the way to Finke it took me 1 hour and 58 minutes, and on the way home it took me 2 hours and 4 minutes. I was preserving myself on the way back, and making sure the bike survived the high speeds and tough conditions.”
“I just want to say a big hats off Motorex KTM Off-Road Racing and the HSE Group for all the support they threw in to give me the chance to ride Finke, and a big personal thanks goes to Brad Williscroft and Ben Grabham, who together were an open book with their knowledge of the track and set up, they didn’t hold back on sharing with me their years of experience, and trade secrets, they definitely helped me get to this point, and I feel my win is a big tribute to their contribution.”
Last year’s winner Ben Grabham retired from this year’s event with mechanical problems.
Grabham’s time last year (2009) was four hours 1 minute and 26 seconds.
