Five Minutes With Fletch - Sam Sunderland

Warning! Five Minutes With Fletch is over five minutes this week as I sit down with two-time Daker winner and two-time world rally champion Sam Sunderland.

Having announced his retirement from pro racing just a few months ago, I caught up with Sam Sunderland as he lined up for the SC Sporthome Team at Farleigh Castle Vets MX. The Dubai-based British rally raid motorcycle rider is best known for participating in the Dakar Rally, which he won in 2017 and 2022, but as he showed us at Farleigh Castle, his motocross roots are far from in the past.

In the episode, I chatted with Sunderland about how he transitioned from motocross to rally racing, Dakar life, and which win was the best. We also discuss his plans for the future post-retirement, which include trying to beat Clement Desalle, a possible switch to four wheels, and getting lost in the desert!

Special thanks to Sam Sunderland for the interview.

I hope you guys enjoy it.
