ABOUT
ME

Passionate About Inspiring Others

Hi my name is Stephanie Rowe. My childhood started out with very humble beginnings, which unfortunately meant I didn't grow up riding bikes like other racers you'll find racing Dakar. However, I quickly learnt that if you want something in life, you work hard and fight for it. I believe this has attributed to my positive thinking and strong attitude; it has also made me hungry to achieve great things.

I started riding motorcycles at the age of 21. It's safe to say that since I discovered motorcycles my life has evolved around them ever since.  I have worked in the motorcycle industry since 2009 for various brands in various roles.

 

In 2012 with the help of AJP motorcycles, I began racing competitively and raced in the British Sprint Enduro Championship, where I finished 3rd overall in the women's category. 

In 2013 I became a brand ambassador for BMW Motorrad and have been involved in various marketing campaigns and events over the years.

 

Unfortunately, I suffered a life-changing injury at the end of 2013 after an off-road motorcycle accident; the doctor told me that I would never be active again and that even walking would be painful for the rest of my life. It took me several surgeries and almost two years to walk again, and with great determination in 2017, I returned to competitive off-road riding and raced my first Rally. 

In 2019 I raced the FIM European Rally Championship finishing 3rd in the M1 category and 25th Overall. 

Since I started riding, The Dakar Rally has always been a dream, and now I want to turn that dream into a reality.
