Trial World Championship Toni Bou
With one trial still to run before the end of the season, Repsol Hondas Toni Bou today mathematically sealed the 2017 FIM TrialGP World Championship outdoor title in Sokolov, Czech Republic
This marks a 22nd consecutive career title, in both indoor and outdoor disciplines, since the winning streak began way back in 2007, when Bou first joined the Repsol Honda Team. No other rider has ever achieved a greater number of top-flight individual titles.
Bou dominated the TrialGP of Spain, Japan (double-date event), France, Great Britain and the United States (double) before arriving at the penultimate event in the Czech Republic, where in spite of not winning on the day, the rider accumulated enough points to clinch the championship title, finishing in second place.
