At 46, Simon Pavey has a worldwide reputation as both a rider and instructor. He’s also a nice bloke with a glowing passion for riding and a ready chuckle. With his tenth Dakar on the horizon, the cheerful, likable Australian, based in Wales, was happy to share some of his considerable experience with AdvRider Mag readers.
Adv: We’ve all seen Ewan and Charley and Race To Dakar. For a lot of our readers, that will be what brought you to their attention. Do you have some star power now? Are you treated as a celebrity when you travel because of appearing in those shows?
SP: If only (laughing)! No, tragically, not.It’s definitely helped me with everything and raised my profile. I think it’s raised the profile of the whole motorcycle industry, especially here in the UK, Australia and Canada.
