- Kellon Walch was raised in Alamo, Nevada, with "literally hundreds of miles of desert" on his doorstep.
- His parents knew nothing about racing - his father was a fireman and a high school football coach - but Kellon soon began riding a bike, originally to round up the cattle they kept in the desert.
- After winning a host of local races and championships on the west coast, he was scouted during a KTM rider search and selected for Dakar 2005. Among his teammates were Chris Blais and Scot Harden.
- In his first and only Dakar on a bike (he was later plagued by injuries), Kellon finished 22nd overall and made headlines by winning the final stage on the shores of the iconic Lac Rose. At the time he was only the fourth American to win a Dakar stage on two wheels after Chuck Stearns, Danny Laporte and Jimmy Lewis.
- Dakar 2005 also saw a first of 10 stage wins for Robby Gordon, with whom Kellon linked up as a co-driver in the cars in 2011. Their best result together was 14th overall in 2013.
- Since the Dakar came to Saudi Arabia, Kellon has also worked with young talents Austin Jones (2020), Guillaume de Mevius (2022) and Mitch Guthrie (since 2023).
- Back home, Kellon works as a firefighter in Las Vegas.
