• FULL BIO: Jane Daniels

   

  Jane Daniels is a British motorcycle enduro racer who has established herself as one of the premier female competitors in the sport, with multiple championship victories across European and World competitions.

  EARLY YEARS

  Born in 1990 in Redditch, Worcestershire, England, Jane grew up immersed in the world of motorcycles. Her father, Mike Daniels, ran a tyre and auto repair shop, introducing her to engines and machinery from an early age. By age 4, she was already riding a Yamaha PW50 motorcycle, and by 7, she entered her first competitive race in the Auto-Cycle Union’s British Championship, competing against boys in motocross events. Growing up in a working-class environment, she balanced school with weekend races, developing resilience that would define her career while absorbing mechanical knowledge in her father’s workshop.

  EARLY SUCCESS

  While specific information about Jane’s early competitive success is not provided in the source material, we know that she began racing competitively at age 7 in the Auto-Cycle Union’s British Championship. This early exposure to competition, racing primarily against male competitors, laid the groundwork for her later professional achievements in motorcycle enduro racing.

  REPUTATION

  Based on the provided information, Jane has developed a reputation as a fearless and technically skilled enduro racer who thrives in a male-dominated sport. Her consistent championship performances across British, European, and World competitions establish her as one of the leading female enduro racers of her generation.
