For the bikes, nobody seems to be able to challenge KTM, aswell as Kamaz for the trucks. Cann't wait for those helicopter camera shots over de Sahara...  |
It's great stuff, I loved to watch any parts of this rally. There's isn't really anything that compares and I doubt that many here can actually relate to it.
I wonder if there is any channel at all to show some of it, I'm not a TV person, so I wouldn't know.
Here's a little Wiki-info:
