Yup. Other mal fokkers may help you change your engine, but no outside help other than to give advice. Brett blew fork seals on one of his Dakar rides. He bought the required parts (you may do this), then the guys in the KTM truck showed him how to do the work, but he had to actually do the work...

Gerry@WP7  :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft: :thumleft: Make that WP8

Nope, sorry, I got that off ADV. It would be interesting to hear Gilly's opinion, but I suspect she won't really be able to give her full opinion "in the public domain" I do think that the Org has to do something to reduce the risk to riders. Too many close calls, and the consequence of an...

The Austrian leader rides smoother than even me  ;D

Donovan and Willem at WP9, just one to go. Gerry plugging away at WP6 I'm disappointed that Gabriela is out.

I am not convinced about this intentional mixing of bikes and cars Walkner: Hello from the bivouac The leadership has held 5th place in the stage. The time intervals are ok for me. It was not so bad today. I was a bit nervous because of course I did not want to go wrong and make mistakes...

David at ASS already

Bad race for the Roma family: Chilecito (Argentina), Jan 17 .- The Spaniard Rosa Romero (KTM) left the Dakar today for a dangerous wound near the femoral vein with which she ran bleeding the last 140 kilometers of the tenth stage of the rally, between Salta and Belén ( Argentina). The Catalan...

One has to wonder. Compare that with AVB, who tried to carry on after his big off. He is quite badly injured: Update on AVB from his sister: Results of the last scanner: 2 broken ribs 1 collarbone Pneumothorax (collapsed lung) A lot of blood and air in the lungs due to the trauma. One night...

Awesome, thank you. I was rather worried. Apparently some riders were directed around the second special today, and I guess Gerry was one of them? Lekker vet penalties, but so what, as long as he can continue.  :thumleft:

From the Whatsapp group: Willem laat weet hy is klaar vir die dag. Hy het geval vandag en sy ribbes seergemaak. Dit het gebeur toe die motorfiets onder hom uitgly in ‘n rivierbedding en hy op ‘n klip land. Hy sê sy ribbes is nie gebreek nie, maar dis seer genoeg en het vandag vir hom baie tyd...
