Please keep in mind that some of us (like me) do not sit in front of a computer all day long to post on forums.
I will cheer on anybody that rides a Gas Gas. So here I am cheering for him! If you post please give us a few days to read all of the new threads that are posted daily.

Best of luck with the dakar! Be safe! I'm sure he will have more people cheering him on as things progress. It's only early in the game.

I'm sorry. I forgot the timezone thingy, it was a bit late at nigth when I voiced my disappointment. It was the 4/48 post/read ratio that upset me.
There are some pictures at www.tommygoesdakar.nl, under section "FOTO". Seems to be a -07 FSR450 from what I can tell of the pictures. http://babelfish.altavista.com/ provides a good translation to English. |

Cool. Some of the world's best riders go to Dakar... And get killed... Makes the baja 1000 look like a "poker run"...
Has anyone e-mailed him to see if he speaks english and can join us here? Here is the main site for the paris to dakar rally... http://www.dakar.com/indexus.html jeff |

Well, this year the PD bikes are limited to 700cc and single cylinder in an effort to reduce death on bikes.
I'm sure we have all seen the video of Gio Sala pulling away from the helicopter filming him, and the chopper was doing 200km/h..... BIG BALLS stuff. The PD is actually quite rideable for most people, just the long days, distances and costs that kills you (and your butt). I was told that for most privateers a campaign start at Euro 100k K
