Kellon Walch

I can't say that I recognize the name of Robby's codriver, what is his background? I am sure Mr. Walch is more than qualified to be a co-driver and navigator but if I'm not mistaken Robby has had three different co-drivers each of the past three years. Why not not bring back someone with Dakar experience?

Last years navigator was Johnny Campbell. This yr he's riding a Honda inthe Moto class @ Dakar. I believe Kellon was BJ Baldwin's navi a couple yrs ago when he drove the 2nd H3. He's also ridin co-dog for Robby in several other off road races.
