Hope he does well. You know I wish they would change to the name to Andean Rally and just forget the Dakar, Everybody would get it and relish it.

Anyone in Junction that can give me a help with a ride?

My truck broke down in Moab. The dealer is hauling me and my truck to Grand Junction (Western Slope Auto on Hwy 6). I need help with a ride from the dealer to a hotel today, then back to the dealer in the morning. I have 2 larger gear bags and some skis that need to go with me. Any help is greatly appreciated. Please call or text my mobile at 801.879.0ne0ne5ve7ven

Thanks in advance,
Travis
