What is the current opinion on this forum regarding the change of venue from Africa the Shackeled Continent to Argentina and Chile for the 2009 event? IMHO it looks to be a huge success, the scenery is out of this world, the route is as challenging (if not more) than anything Africa could throw at it, no village idiot(s) killed, no riders/drivers shot at, no cancellation of stage/event due to stupid farkin political power-games, etc, etc ensovoorts?

I think it should stay south of the equator (and out of Africa!).

Any comments or conflicting opinions out there?
