Biography

Formative years and joining Repsol Montesa Honda

Born on October 17, 1986 in Piera (Barcelona), Toni Bou started as a Bike Trial rider when he was eight. After winning the World Championship of his category, in 1999 he took the leap to the motorbike Trial.

Immersed in the motorcycling category, in 2001 he took the Junior Spanish Championship, a title that was followed by the 250cc European Cup for young stars in 2002 and the European Championship in 2003. In 2005 he was part of the team that won the Trial des Nations, was runner-up in the Trial Indoor Spanish Championship and fifth in the Outdoor World Championship.

The next year, Bou achieved his first wins in the highest class, both in the Indoor class (third in the World Championship) and the Outdoor class, where he finished again in fifth position of the World Championship classification.

After joining the ranks of the Repsol Montesa Honda team in the 2007 season, the rider from Piera dominated the Indoor World Championship. With a Montesa Cota 4RT, Toni Bou won four of the eight rounds that formed the Indoor calendar. The great level he showed placed him among the favourites to won the Trial Outdoor World Championship, that he also won after taking nine victories from the eleven rounds of the Championship. The icing of the cake was the Repsol rider’s victory in the Indoor Spanish Championship and his third consecutive win as a member of the Spanish team in the Trial des Nations.
