KTMrad 508 Posted January 21, 2010 From a friend of a friend of a friend, who raced in the Dakar.......... Hello everybody, I'm back in San Diego and it feels good to be home with my wife and kids. here is a small story on my adventure I just came back from.. Doctor today did some Xray because the pain was excruciating and come to find out, on 7th day of the race, I broke two toes and metatarse in right foot. Now I understand why it was so tough to put the boot on in the a.m.! Oh well... soft cast for two weeks....good thing is I lost 19lbs! and a pant size! here are two more photo galleries of the event. http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/01/dakar_rally_2010.html http://gallery.me.com/ludo.b#100390 tall to you soon.

SCHWINN 0 Posted January 21, 2010 pic # 12 in 1st gallery, I thought the angle was wrong on the pic but I think it is correct, that is one long steep downhill that made gasp when I saw it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTMrad 508 Posted February 4, 2010 Ludo is here in San Diego?? I had no idea.It would be awesome if we could get him to give a little presentation about his experience. Nudge nudge. We have my friend John Deykes who has done a few rallies, doing a presentation at the Desert Dash. My friend Brett is going to talk to Ludo about a possible presentation for SDAR either at a club meeting in the future, or next year's Desert Dash. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
