J.A.: 

  • Jacob Argubright got his first bike at the age of three and grew up exploring the desert tracks of Southern California. Encouraged to race by his father, Steve, who was a rider himself, he claimed some of the most prestigious titles in U.S. off-road racing, including Best in the Desert, Vegas to Reno, and the AMA National Hare and Hound. Beyond racing, he also helps his wife Megan in managing the AMA National H&H series.
  • The talented American rider got his first rally-raid taste at the 2021 Abu Dhabi Desert Challenge, securing an impressive 2nd place in Rally 2. He made his Dakar debut in 2023, finishing as the 3rd best rookie and 22nd overall. He continued in the sport and repeated this result in 2025, riding a Honda CRF450RX. A great achievement considering the bike was still in testing and development. A fourth Dakar in bikes was planned for 2026 but had to be postponed.
  • Staying home was not an option, and the Californian found a solution by entering in the Can-Am Factory Team as a navigator, joining the ranks of bikers who bring their skills to four wheels racing. This transition has been successful in recent years, particularly in SSVs, with winning navigators like Oriol Mena (2023) and Martin Bonnet (2024). Partnered with renowned American UTV driver Kyle Chaney, Jacob now dreams of adding his name to the Dakar winners list.
