----->Here is a taster video <---- :drif: (how do you embed youtube stuff??)
Sad to see there are no SA riders this year!? Whats happening, has the economic crisis been that bad? Or is it bitterness that its not in Africa anymore? I dont know, but one thing I can say, its an AWESOME route, dare I say it, perhaps harder in South America.
eepwall:
Anyway Im shouting for Marc Coma, who won last year but is not sponsored this year!? It seems sponsorship was really hard to get this year. Im also going to shout for the Ozzies, cos theyre arrogent like us but less so than the french in this comp. ;D
