January 8, 2012 at 8:34 am #214208Stages 6 & 7 are at Copiapo and it looks awesome !!
The Kiwi extreme enduro rider , Chris Birch , is going well he lost a lot of time playing bush mechanics but definitely has the stamina to make Lima if the bike holds out !!

January 9, 2012 at 7:55 pm #214282I don’t get it?
How come “certain” riders f&@k up & take the punt on speeding through darker colour terrain…….then come a gutsa & get stuck……..they are later given most the time they lose back?????
Race run from Paris…………Depres from ?
January 9, 2012 at 8:15 pm #212571:laugh: Yeah, good bog that one was hey ??? :whistle:
They say the other competitors were diverted AWAY FROM THE AREA by race control to avoid a mass roadblock :dry:
So the time the front 3 spent in the bog was deducted from their times to be FAIR ,,,,,
Man they were stuck fast with bikes weighing 175kg :S
Did real well to free themselves actually (I would have just lay there & died covered in mud) :laugh: :laugh:January 9, 2012 at 8:22 pm #214284Coma didn’t seem to get too stuck!
January 9, 2012 at 8:29 pm #212572He must have taken a shortcut :laugh:
Thats racing hey ????Are you just pissed cause all the honda wrecks are way down the ranks or OUT ????? :whistle: :woohoo:
January 9, 2012 at 11:16 pm #214285Hondas got nothing to do with it Eags!
When you bash yourself up all day long & make better decisions than your competitors you should be rewarded. But, unfortunately it seems politics pushes its way into everything !……………….Wonder what would have happened if Coma had got stuck & Despres had avoided losing time?
After hearing last year that some teams seemed to get away with speeding through speed limited areas etc, you get a little sus.
But hey, there may be more to it that we don’t about.
January 9, 2012 at 11:44 pm #214291Dakar has always been about who you are, where you are from or who you ride for. Go back over the penalties for years it’s always been that way. I am sure I read last year in GHR’s blogs that they felt one of the penalties Jake got would have been different had they been someone else.
Coma missed the mud, he was actually the lead bike on the road. But Crash if things were being done for Cyril to win why hasnt he won the last couple of years :blink:
