Just a quick note of recognition to a guy that has more guts than I can make sense of. Ben Grabham rode the Dakar just months after breaking his back hitting a roo at some 150 kph. http://www.ktm.com.au/news.php?newsid=1370 Scroll down to see Xrays. Yuk ! He finished the Dakar in a remarkable 14th position. Unbelievable.
Racing forum would be more appropriate, not really LC8/Orange Crush related. I knew he was in the Dakar but didn't realize he'd finished that high. Anyhow, he's no slouch on a 2-stroke either: http://www.youtube.com/watch?<WBR>feature=player_detailpage&v=<WBR>8xfpU0yIpG4
