Interview with Alex Rins for Galfer's 70th Anniversary

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

1.- Describe you early days of #competition:

Well, I started competing when I was very young. I began at the age of 3, when my parents gave me a quad bike. Then, I remember that my first race was in motocross in Amposta. That was in 2004 when I was only 6.

2.- Describe your training plan for each season:

Yes, of course, the truth is we don't stop for a minute, when we're at home, when we're not competing, we spend many hours training, in the gym, on the bike, and on trial and on-road motorbikes. A bit of everything really, but especially since I've been living in Andorra, for a few years now, I've been doing a lot of trial, a lot of cycling, and also some days in summer, downhill, and in winter we do more alpine skiing and all sorts of winter sports.

3.- Can you tell us how your collaboration with #galfer began?

The truth is that I have some really lovely memories with them. We started very young with my debut, as far as I remember, with me entering the Spanish championship in 2010 with the Monlau team. We already had Galfer's name on the visor, and honestly I'm really happy with them. I have a great relationship with Umberto, and I am really very pleased with all the support they have given me and continue to give me.

4.- What is it about #galfer products for your motorbike that you value?

Well, I do remember that the products we tried were very good. I have memories of the motorbike we used in 2011 in the Spanish championship, fitted with #galfer products, and we would compare what we had with what our opponents were using, and I felt very comfortable with the discs, with the #galfer pads on the bike.

5-- What are the first three words that come to mind when you think about Galfer?

The words #competition and win come to mind.

6.- What is it about #galfer products for your motorbike that you value?

Yes, we've won a lot with #galfer, I'm telling you. In the Spanish championship we were world champions with them. In Moto3, we were also runners-up in the world championship; we've had lots of successes with #galfer.

7.- This year, 2022, is the 70th #anniversary of #galfer, do you have a message for them?

Well, what can I say? Congratulations and well done for all the successes - including mine - that we've achieved, and that they have achieved over the 70 years. And I hope they continue for many years to come.
