Talking of travelling abroad, I am supporting our young friend, Extreme enduro rider Anders Becker Johansen aka Becker'n. We were in Portugal and Sweden (me and my wife drive his Iveco truck) for the European Championship rounds this year. The trip to Portugal is a 2 week affair. Next year's plans include yet another trip to Portugal, the Lagares extreme this time.

Yes! That's his bike. Let's hope Martinsen does well in the weekend's races.

Put my bike on diet as this winter we are participating only in races where lights are not needed - indoor motocross and maybe also some cross-country races.

So - lights are gone, both front and rear, some cabling also. New brake disks are waiting for installation, number of bolts and plastic details for replacement. Piston and cylinder are okay for now and top end rebuild will happen in the beginning of March.

Where do I find a quality front rim, preferrably A60 pre-drilled for GasGas?

Got an e-mail from our importer regarding placing orders for new, MY2018 bikes.

Placed an order for the 250.

Does Christmas get any better?

I am really looking forward to hear your impressions of that 2018 bike when you get it. Did you get an estimated date of delivery?
And no, it doesn't get any better. That must be the optimal Gasgas Christmas present :-)

No exact date, but according to my understanding 300 will be produced first and 250 a bit later. Both should be available in Europe before the racing season begins.

Yesterday I did my first winter race this year. It was called "ribbetrimmen" with translates to something like pork ribs workout. As pork ribs is the most common Christmas dish around here, the name point to the need for getting some exercise after all the heavy meals during Christmas. It is a fun, low cost race where everyone gets a price, a small marzipan pig.

Well, this winter is bad so far. No snow and a lot of mud in the track. Great fun, the winter rebuild worked out well. I ended as # 8 out of 12 in the above 50 class. However, my friend had to go to the the doctor with broken ribs after flying over the bars of his brand new orange 250. Not the best "first ride on the brand new bike" he has performed...
