Thanks Michael - it is certainly my intention to race the LC4-50 at one of the UK rounds this year too... it will be good practice for all that Bolivian mud we are hearing about for 2014!

Yes or No

Certainly! - as Flood says, the idea is to have a 'one-stop-shop' here regarding any/all the information and coverage we can glean from the Tuareg this year... all I've done is get the ball rolling, hoping it will evolve in the same way as the main Dakar thread does each year...

Since I am specifically attending the rally in a media capacity, then I will do my best to get the inside track on any 'breaking news' regardless of who it involves, and relay it here each day in my own personal appraisal... but of course I'm also going to have my hands full supporting those 8 riders/teams that I highlighted at the beginning of the thread (providing them with a personal daily news feed) so I'm sure we would all welcome as much input as possible from alternate sources - including bikes, quads and cars too of course!

Why can't we get that here in the states? I mean the ISDE XC was Ok, but c'mon..! Really? Can I get a Macross or Wulfsburg Edition? I would so Pay for that!

And a Rat Bike - That just says so much.

Just to say I've been making a few updates to my Featured Rider's profiles on the first page - most are now complete, although Ned and Jean-Luc are still in transit (or lording it up in a European bar somewhere more likely!), but their complete info will follow shortly too...

Enjoy!
