    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)
    I may not be as good as I once was, but I'm as good once as I always was.

    There was half an hour coverage daily on SKY Sport.
    There is a grey blur, and a green blur. I try to stay on the grey one. - Joey Dunlop

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

    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.
