Tales From The Bivouac, Dakar 2012

Nice doubletake mirrors on those bikes!

With this page and the tweets from Robb, it doesn't get much better.

Ted,

Just want to thank you for taking the trouble to post. Pics, updates, whatever. We appreciate it!

Cool mirrors - anyone got a link to where you can buy them ?

So how come all the names are not on Ned's bike plastic?
And decals? etc

(cough)http://www.doubletakemirror.com/(cough)

I'm sure they will be soon. The final decals were not done when Ned left, so Chris had to pack the 20lb shipping tube in his luggage.

How do I make it look like I'm working with all the Dakar madness threads to follow.



Sweeeeeet pics and thread Ted.

Tell Bill, Ned and Jonah to GIVE EM...

.

Truck is threw scrutineering and...well.....WOW is there some serious money involved. Sooooooo many sweet vehicles.

I'll get some photos uploaded tonight

Bill just left for his check in

Updates as soon as you hear anything

I'm sure with the group he's with, tech will be no problem, even if something comes up.

Flying colors, all the way to this flying color:

I am so glade we have our ace cub reporter "Jimmy Olsen" on scene for blow by blow details.

Great work Ted!

Is Ned's girlfriend helping these guys through scrutineering? A native French speaker should be helpful.

She wouldn't be allowed in, pretty tight security and if your names not on "the list" .....
