Hi guys Will also compile a small riders reports on ROA 16. Very sad on death of rider #444. I was in snake bite pass almost at the top when I heard it happen. The organizers will have to get there act together, I wont be suprized if IMPI becomes the new roof. I met Michiel at Round the houses...

Hi Billy Weapon of choice for most guys or would say 90 % of the field is KTM's , most is 300's. On the freeride, the suspension is very weak and needs upgrading and the brakes is from a 85 .  Limited fuel range. Would go for the 250 .. Kirsten rode one in 2014 and finished silver on it. ...

As if the race is not hard enough ... at least if it's a 250 4 stroke ? Proudly on a Blue machine, WR250F

I am one of those guys on the 4 strokes..  :thumleft:

Fuel and service points out Boys.

Wow.. Truly blessed man .. Looking forward to a good roof this year. 2014 silver didn't help me either. Please share some of your stories, pre roof practice... Hope you training hard for silver. Best of luck Michiel

I have also never heard Ashley say that will be a each Roof  ;D  Silver is a big step up from bronze.. Well, they say silver was the old gold. heard the malutis got some good rain of late.  That country is very dry . I reckon bronze will do  +- 100 km a day , silver  +120 km , gold 140 km...

Wet & Tough it was.  Also more of a race Loop 1 was fast  compare to loop 2, more technical sections, no real passes but off-camber riding. Finished 16 th in 4H55 .. All & all good event

What do you guys take before an Event like this not to become sick. Its a bummer to put all the hard work and training to enter the event sick or not able to perform tops.

Sound advice.
