Xinjiang Dawn to Dusk | Sishi: Rider. Motor. Desert.

03:30

Born in 1991, Abas Ghapar once worked as a radiologist. He left his stable career to pursue a lifelong passion for speed, devoting himself to motorsports. Returning to the scorching desert dunes for the fourth time at the 2025 Taklimakan Rally, he's ready to chase an adrenaline high at Sishi.

Despite securing second place in the motorcycle category at the 2024 rally, Abas modestly describes himself as "semi-pro." He still trains relentlessly, insisting "only total dedication makes a true professional." As desert winds lash the track, his journey roars onward. From doctor to racer, his handlebars steer ever toward his dreams.
