Bou is hungry for home success


Toni Bou - Repsol Montesa is hungry for home success as the 2012 FIM X-Trial World Championship visits Spain for the first time this season. Bou who currently heads the series standings by a healthy margin, after winning the opening three rounds, is determined to extend his victorious run this evening in Madrid. However the reigning champion arrives in the Spanish capital fresh from being defeated by Adam Raga - Gas Gas at the first event of the domestic series. Bou explained how he has been spending his time during the last four weeks. "Although we have not had any X-Trial events during the last month, I have still been working towards my goals. We have used the time to prepare for the outdoor championship and made some small changes to the bike to be ready for when the series starts in April." "During the last week I have concentrated on being ready for tonight, as Madrid is always a big event in the calendar with this being the home round for Repsol and for me too. So far I have made the perfect start to the championship and I want to continue that this evening." Toni ended by saying. "Being beaten by Adam (Raga) during the last weeks has given me extra motivation, it was not a good day for me - but he rode well and deserved to win, so I will be aware of him tonight."
