Just finished catching up with your adventures and misadventures  :sip:
Inspiring stuff, you are amazing  ;)

You were planning to ride a rally at some point, to prepare for Dakar 2014? Is that still on?

Excellent question!
The three rallies I was scheduled to race in take place in October and November. The Baja Portalegre (Portugal), Rallye du Maroc and Merzouga Rally (Morocco). Before I left on my trip MSA supplied me with my International Racing license.

I am running a little ahead of schedule at this stage and have decided NOT to race, for a couple of reasons.

1. These rallies aren't child's play and I honestly don't feel like I'm ready to race yet. If I hurt myself in one of the rallies, that would jeopardize my trip around Africa. So I've decided to focus on finishing my trip around Africa first. THEN, I can start focusing on training, racing and getting ready for the Dakar in 2014.

2. The money I would need to compete in these rallies is locked up in my KLR that's standing at home and still for sale.

So...in short I won't be racing now. BUT, Dakar 2014 is still a definite! I'm scheduled to start my training in Namibia after I've finished my trip.  :thumleft:
 
Hi Jo. Wonderful adventure you're having. Memories for a lifetime!!!

I suppose you have tracked your route so far. Did you use T4A? Is the track available? I would love to see it!!

Good luck for the rest of the long road!
