George George George Thank you for eventually chipping in. After reading all the comments here and on other forums,threads the overall consensus is that the riders did not get what they paid for. The price paid is lower than other rallies around the world but that is not the point. If you are...

Just to be clear this thread is for debate and not for bitch slapping. Having 2 events is really cool but having one really fantastic one would be even better but remember its my opinion. I see your point about giving your baby away,but it need not be like that. There will NOT be a HARRY HOUND...

Big Dom I think if anyone  entered this race then you walk the walk or maybe crawl  but trying is better than talking   I am not challenging your comment before anyone gets defensive

Koos imagine if you did ride one of those bikes you could have been a 100k ahead :imaposer: :imaposer: :lol8:

tgg I agree with you and I think the main reason is the organisers also did not act responsibly in certain situations. In reply to Plecos comment that the Ama does not race on public roads is way incorrect and I have the road books to prove it. I suppose an adventure maybe does not qualify as a...

I was just wondering if  the Ama cortices  and the Nama cortices  join. Then I strongly believe that if the two got together we would have a fully functional Rally brain going and everyone would win Big sponsors Great riders Fantastic routes Incredible MSA stewards Unforgetable adventure...

Accepted Pleco I thought I would never ever hear that from you and I am really impressed that you have publicly took the time to type that you a great man.

Cracker that sounds fair Amageza *Scrutineering was done correctly but what ever was short you just borrowed another competitors which then defeated the object. *Liasons really scenic but the target times were a little ambitious.The only way you could get there on time was to speed which was...

GG I think your post was great and put a little more perspective into behind the scenes. Just like you I entered and rode I enjoyed the ridding even thou we did not get the full package. The organisers took short cuts and now they have to fix the problems and next year I am sure it will be...

Bonova I think you post is probably the best I have read. All I want to do is ride and enjoy what I bought into but when you get some of Santas little helpers dishing out negativity then I would rather just stick to my day job. The costs are not the issues in my opinion it is just the level...

Camelman I do believe you have good intentions and it is great that you sacrifice so much to organise an event like the Amageza. But before you start planning rides into neighbouring countries maybe try and perfect what you are trying in your own country. The T shirt saga is just a example of...

You missing the point. If you sell something then you deliver. If you say something you do what you say.

Ian C I agree with you that the people behind the scenes make the rally/event but why is it the organisers seem to get it wrong and there ends up being negativity after the event and all the behind the scenes workers get the short end of the stick I have also been there and bought the T -shirt...

maybe maybe not but I have done both. And I enjoyed the riding on both but not the politics.

Compete or do not compete but what I am getting at is,it would be nice if everyone gets involved for the good of the sport in a constructive way.  So already this thread is getting off on the typical negative foot.

Grim having your experience at this rally made a huge difference I just hope that it was not to your detriment. And I think you are starting to think this might be what you want to get involved in looking forward to your input buddy

Fundamentally both rallies have good intentions. And that is to bring a Prosperous International rally to SA.  But if both organisers cannot even get a simple thing like a event T shirt organised then I am afraid we are in for a long wait. Both parties promise the earth but neither deliver close...

I just hope that truck has a tracker and a armed guard because there is a huge amount of money and memories on that truck. Check you all on Friday

I wonder why the fuel line has a lap en plak connector so this just means that the maintenance was maybe not up to scratch and I also wonder about the genuine mileage because the speedos are not that reliable so it could have been changed but otherwise it does not look to shabby
