The passion for competition and a practically indestructible will mark the character of a unique pilot. Joan Roma, Nani to his friends, was born in Vic on February 17, 1972 and after a brief stint on the football fields, this sport lost a forceful goalkeeper when motorcycles crossed paths in his life. He signed up for his first race by falsifying a friend's license, a very common sin among great champions. He won it and since then he has not stopped amassing an impressive record of achievements that was only missing the jewel in the crown, the Dakar, which he finally achieved in the 2004 edition.
