Good luck and have a great time.....I will follow your progress

Me too..

BTW, I cannot find out from the Dakar web site how to follow individuals, any idea/link please Jen.

I think once the race starts there is an applet which shows riders positions.

Heres the listing and number

As Mike says, closer to the time, various new sections pop up on the website - including rider/driver profiles - and the link to the IriTrack site that allows you to enter a particular race number...

Have patience young Skywalker!

ps. It's just taken me six and a half hours to get to bloody Brighton... the Dakar is going to be a breeze in comparison!

We are all rooting for you....:family:...have a good time!

going abit off topic here :120:

If you think there might be ice about i wouldnt even bother. Ive commuted all year round on the XTR for 2.5winters and when its snowy or icey its just no fun. But if its been +ve temperatures for a few days i would go out for a ride but only on the main roads just so i could get out and about.

I ride mine all year come what may, I use it to ride to work

Ride on Da Ice
 

Hi I ride all year round i have other transport,Its been hard with all the ice and snow ect But wear the right Gear, and take ya time on the ice.And enjoy your shelf,whish i got some them heated Grips.
Take it easy.

Thank you for your input. As I've never even gone off-road before I bought the XT i think I'll skip the ice riding for the moment ;-)
