Dakar is over and glad I made it home. Today I took the time to scan through the forum and boy it was interesting. Now I understand why the Rand has gone for the dogs ....... no one was working. Thanks again for your support. Lots to tell, plenty of stories and memories from this Dakar 2016...

For the last three years I have been participating in the World Cross Country Championship in the motorbike category. In 2009, I participated in the Australian Safari which ended in a horrible crash. So bad, that I had to start rehab from scratch - learn how to walk again. At that cross road in...

Hi all Its time to start racing again. My first rally of the year is Abu Dhabi desert challenge. Its is tough one due to the fact that it is HOT (temp average in the desert 40deg) and we race in dunes every day for five days doing an average of 400-500km. If I refer to dunes, I mean massive...

Hi Guys. Looks good. Lightweight is the way to go. I will not bother with a screen at all. The road book can be the screen. The saddle bags at the back? Not sure what you are thinking of storing in these unless you carry tubes etc The less you carry, the better. If you can't repair the bike...

LEATT Knee Brace If anyone is considering buying the new LEATT knee brace, my advice is rather NOT. At the Transanatolia Rally which I participated, my team mate used his new LEATT brace as a shake down for the DAKAR. He crashed and the main frame broke in 2 pieces. The scary part is that the...

Niel That is where Kemal died. He was a legend in Turkey and great guy. Favourite for Amageza ? You know that in a rally there is no such thing as a favourite. I could have been out on my first day in the prologue. Even the Pro's have shown us this over the years. This year in the Abu Dhabi...

hi guys.  Just finished the Transanatolia Rally in Turkey. Not the result which I wanted to achieve but I raced in a place where only a selected handful of people will see and experience in their life. The 2nd placed on day 5 made up for the overall result which I think was around 10th place...

Finally the Transanatolia is over. Not the result which I wanted to achieve but I raced in a place where only a selected handful of people will see and experience in their life. The 2nd placed on day 5 made up for the overall result which I think was around 10th place overall. Through hardship...

Today was the second last day of the rally. It was again split in 2 special stages. Stage 1 was a mountain and forest stage which was awesome riding. Tight corners with lost of navigation and in the last 5 km I got horribly lost. This caused me to go around in circles and ended up adding 15km to...

Hi everyone from Turkey. Just a quick update. Not going that great. Had a bad crash in the prologue, 300m from the start and injured my arm. Pain killers is keeping me going in the race. Day 1 was salt lakes with lots of navigation. Day 2 & 3was mountain stages. We summit up to 3500m I...

Hi I entered for Sertoes but at the last minute our team decided to rather go to Turkey for the Transanatolia. It was sad for me because I prepared mentally for Sertoes. Even my rally jackets arrived with the Sertoes logo. For us as a team it was just to expensive to send one rider over because...

Thanks everyone. Will post photos, but please connect via Face Book as well. Kobus Potgieter

Hi guys, everyone is talking about training. Riding a rally is all about getting fit (mentally as well as physically) and use to time in the seat. Doing one hard days of riding or even two is simply not good enough. The turnaround is normally after day 3. When I train for a rally, I will push...

Hi everyone interested in rally racing. I was on my way and entered the Rally Dos Sertoes when one on my sponsors pulled out at the last moment. With all my racing equipment stationed in Dubai, we (KTM UAE team), decided to enter the Trans Anatolia. It is an FIM race which starts in Ancara and...
