Bike Race Challenge

On cold, windy afternoons in the Pennines above Rochdale, four-time world champion Enduro rider Jane Daniels could often be seen putting her bike through its paces at a former quarry turned off-road track.

She had been going there since she was 12, following her brother Gary after both were inspired to take up the sport by their road racing father Andy.

Jumping over ramps and tyres quickly became second nature for the Wigan racer as she went on to become one of the sport's most decorated riders.

Such is the 29-year-old's reputation, she was asked to take part in the famous Dakar Rally, becoming only the third British woman to complete what is commonly held up as the world's toughest race.

She rides a motorbike.

Good to see a local girl made good, I wonder where she comes from?

Thanks for that, 'Wigan' is good enough for me.
