When he finished his shift from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Rieju factory, August Castellà (Figueres, 1992) would go out for a ride on a motorcycle. The next day, all his colleagues already knew they would have work to do. Castellà, a mechanical engineer and head of development for the Rally and Trail projects at the Empordà-based brand, would return with ideas to improve the Rieju 307 Rally that he himself had developed. And after putting it to the test, he would tweak things to make it more competitive. Initially, he didn't know it, but he was starting a journey that will take him to the Dakar Rally this January. Always aboard the Rieju 307 Rally that he has been working on for nine years.
