Toby Price rode his KTM 450 well - to stake his place at the top step of the box..

Been following that in the Aussie forum on ADVrider. I have no idea how they can go that fast in rough terrain and for so long.
Huge achievement, but almost no coverage of the event in NZ media (that I could find at least)

There was half an hour coverage daily on SKY Sport.

Bet you a box of beer if Richie Mccaw entered though it would make 1 3 and prime news every night first up.:tugger:.

I just about put a bullet though my Tv during the RWC.

Our media coverage is bull***t when it comes to any type of sport that does not involve a ball.:no:
