Awesome!

Did anyone see the race footage from day 3? A helicopter camera caught Quinn Cody in a nasty looking wreck, broke his shoulder, and cut his face up a bit. If you have to bow out of the race its pretty bitter to not even finish the first week.

I love the Dakar Rally. If I had a rich benifactor I would love to do it. Though I would ride it just to make it to the finish. I couldn't imagine riding at the speeds the competitive guys manage.

I saw the Quinn flip. It seems like a lot of crashes are endos when the rear tire hits a bump. That was a bad crash. Here it is- he's caught leaning forward when the rear takes off. That has to be a bad feeling.





I'm with you Phil- ride to finish. Maybe we can start with Baja? We can get Ken to sponsor us :deal:
