it's coming :D   http://www.dakar.com/ (http://www.dakar.com/)

Me and the wife have been following it for years on Eurosport.  Carlton Kirby knows his stuff and provides good commentary.  It's the perfect antidote to post Xmas blues...

[aeronca]

it shaping up to be great.  Cyril Despres, Marc Coma, Jonah Street are back, and this will be interesting, Cici Pala riding an Aprilia.  Man i cant wait.

What's the  best way for someone without cable or sat. TV to watch the Dakar?  I'd buy a subscription like I do for Moto GP....Up until now all I can get are news clips.  Is that the best I can get or am I missing something on the internet?  Thanks for the iinfo in advance.

Excellent!  I'll check it out.  Thanks!

Thanks guys!

[John Stenhouse]

Saw the preview on Eurosport last night, went over the route planning and recce. Looking good

[HappyMan]

I can't get enough of this crazy race.  Man these guys are nuts!!  So much fun to watch.  8)

[John Stenhouse]

If you ever get the chance go to the scrutineering, I went a few years ago to Arras in Frnace when the start was there it was truly awesome to see the vehicles close up.

[HappyMan]

I'd love to do that.  Would have been easier for me to do in France though as I go there often enough.  I've never been to South America.  Sounds like a good excuse though...

Can't wait!

Does anyone know if:

Fretingne is riding a 2WD Yamaha this year? Now that htey are all limited to 450cc he'd have a good chance.

What the heck is a 'Super Rocket'??? One of the swedish folk has entered one

[aeronca]

yeah, i've been trying to find out what the super rocket is as well, but no luck.

It's Annie Seel's 525EXC KTM aka SUPER ROCKET
