Well, time has passed, and the millions of dollars that were supposed to come my way have become mired in the paperwork of living the good life. Now time is working against me, so I need to move forward as if Dakar is a real possibility in spite of my finances. This Baja race is the first and only roadbook navigation rally that I've seen in North America, and as such, represents a relatively cheap way to get into the sport of Rally Raid and test the waters. But it still ain't cheap. > > > > Unfortunately, right now, the KLR doesn't suit the kind of riding I need to be doing on a daily basis to get ready for the start line. I can honestly say that the KLR has made me the rider I am today. And I can honestly say that I can outride the KLR's abilities - something I didn't think was possible on that first journey through Manhattan to Brooklyn on my new-to-me KLR in January of 2000. > > > > I know that when the dust has settled, and I've run my course in rally racing (which could be as short as this one rally), I will lick my wounds and return to the world of the KLR where a man can be happy with a lipstick covered pig. For the time being, I will shed a tear for every mile I've travelled on the venerable KLR - the rivers will rise with the stream of tears. . . > > > > da Vermonster (confessional mode off) > > >
