Dakar 2011.

Who watched it? I managed to catch a bit now and then, just watched the roundup on EurosportHD.

Stunning aerial photography from choppers low enough to get water on the lens from the cars going through rivers! The bike riding was amazing, some huge spills but nothing too serious for the bikers at least.

One good bit of news, apparently KTM are one of the cheapest companies to buy a competition 450 from....yours for about €25000. Maybe we could all have a whip round and send our own privateer team in a year or two?

Its really nice to see a motorsport where KTM feature so highly on national TV with good coverage (relatively).

Ten years a winner doesn't get better than that,

Day 6 i counted one broken wrist one broken leg concussion and a broken arm.

Epic event, one day i will.

Hasn't there been a few deaths? I'm sure I heard of a rider having a heart attack and another dying in a crash.

Awesome event though and sorts the men from the boys. I'd love to think I could do it one day.... then I wake up and make my porridge I would love to go and watch the Erzberg. That looks the dogs nuts! Makes our decent in Spain look like flat ground

Been woching it ,its been excelent , hears a fave vid of mine with an all star line up .

Cach it all here

Holy shit Klinck! That was one mutha of a hard decent

And Freestyler....mate, you could really see the power of that HP2 on that climb...it just kept going and going! Massive bike though, would love to know what that kind of weight actually feels like on dirt.

fook yeah! Deffo near deitific levels of skill going on there.

Pmsl at the ambulance comment! So true!!

Mmmmm after a few beers i'm sure we could get a team together to enter the Erzeberg,getting out the quarry might prove impossible once sober though might be worth a look as a spectator
