Anyone here planning on doing this?

I fanny a go, will be my first Rally ever.

Anyone fancy making up a team?

Also Are off road tires needed or can I get away with Tourances?

You will choose your own routes to the way points so Tourances would be fine.
If anyone is having issues with opening this link try using Firefox or Chrome as IE wont open it .

Dont forget this year's Taffy Dakar

https://www.facebook.com/TaffyDakar

http://www.taffydakar.org.uk/news/

For those that may find it difficult riding on lanes the harder ones will be marked up for you to avoid, don't forget you choose the route you take so you can do it all on the tarmac.

It's all about the taking part and having fun with like minded people with no pressure to get all the waypoints.

You will also be taken out on the Sunday with local riders to show you some of the best views, roads and lanes in the part of Wales.

Please get your deposits in asap, we need to know numbers to get prizes and presents ordered way in advance

There are a few others turning up one they're own, you can make a team yourselves or just join in with another. DoubleL was in a team of singles last year and they had a great laugh (even though he lost the map)
