Me doing Dakar timing out of a mobile home? I’s like to see that too!

It appears that MD, the de-facto standard in roadbooks, is going out of business. https://www.rallymotoshop.com/collections/md-roadbook-spare-parts-blowout

IIRC you may change the engine number, but not the frame. Amageza had the same rule. Also Malle Moto may have their spare engine carried for them, so it doesn’t have to fit in their trommel. With the increased reliability of the 450 engines, it may be interesting if they changed the rule that...

Interesting discussion. I am not sure I agree about Lyndon having an issue with Pain choosing to swop his entire engine. Pain had a spare engine, and nobody other than fellow Mal-fockers helped him, so I don’t think that is breaking the spirit of Malle Moto. I do agree that Malle Moto should...

From Lyndon via FB: Folks, I just completed the official Dakar post race questionnaire and wanted to share my input. On the whole, this Dakar Rally 2018 was the hardest race I have ever done. The terrain was brutal and relentless, just how it should be! The organisation did a sterling job to...

Yo, as a die-hard XC owner and lover, it breaks my heart that this is taking so long to sell  :'(

Welcome back. You sure kicked the ass of your crazy dream. Rookie Malle Moto finisher, you LEGEND!  :3some:

Some drivers can learn about sportsmanship from our own Giniel. We done sir, well done. From MCH Photo, via FB: True sportsmanship "Just to explain what happened. The guy on the bike fell down in the feshfesh and did not put the sentinel on (I read somewhere he was sayin it did not work)...

It isn’t actually difficult, not much different to a bicycle. I had to learn, quickly, before I lowered the suspension on my XC. https://youtu.be/xhjeReEnpuo https://youtu.be/wabDqaKXUrE

I don't ride well at all, so I wear all the protection I can. When Alpine Stars released a new range of knee braces, there was a sale on the old style ones, and I got a set for quite cheap. Nowhere near the R19k that a CTI set cost, I think it was closer to R3k (this was a while back) It took a...

Awesome bikes. The last times I saw this particular one was at Amageza a while back. Good times  ;)

By my count that is over half of the Dakar bike finishers from South Africa, ever!

No fingernails left

I am very proud to count some of these heroes (from this year and others) as my friends

He did  :thumleft:

I spoke to Lyndon a while back (via SMSs). Moerse pleasant ok. His plan back then was to head for South Africa after Dakar, landing in Cape Town first.

Maak ‘n plan. I have basically the same bike, and I love it. Thia is a lot of bike for a very good price.

ASO deciding not to have each rider going over the podium this year is an atrocious decision. However, these photos almost make up for it:
