    HPPT !!!

    A paraplegic driver rolled a big truck a couple of days ago. Was that him, or someone else?

    Just spit balling, but I would expect a moto crosser type to excell at the rally stuff more than a road racer. I'm really impressed by what he is accomplishing down there.

    That was Albert Llovera , I believe Joan is the first tetraplegic, and he's doing the Side By Side ATV/UTV thing

    This is a lot of attention on a mask. Maybe, just maybe, he was a participant of an event and simply followed their rules. Due to rules in my local establishments there are some places I wear masks, and some that I don't...and it doesn't have anything to do with me being a pawn or politics.

    If I want to participate/ access their establishments, I follow their rules. If I don't want to wear it, then I don't participate/access their establishments.

    Seems pretty innocuous to me. Same as no shirt, no shoes, no service.:Pop:

    Desert rally is like road racing and enduro had a baby. It’s glorious.

    Don’t try it or you’ll be hooked.

    Petrux in MA will be a blast!

    Petrucci is going to be like Johnny Appleseed racing his way across America next year...

    I think I read somewhere he did do motocross, as did a lot of the top road racers.

    Correction he started out in 1998 racing mini trials and then mini cross.

    Once a Wanker.. Always a Wanker!

    I've become a fan this week!
    I truly believe he'd likely have become the first rookie to be leading the bikes at stage 5 (that I can recall, anyway,) if his KTM had not let him down in Stage One.

    I don't think there was a more likeable guy than Petrux in the GP paddock. The People's Champion if you will

    I can't wait for him to come to America. I hope people remember this and come out to support MA and Petrux like he deserves.

    We're spoiled and we don't even know it.

    See this is why he's such a likable guy, so humble and appreciative it seems. Nice that we've seen nothing but smiles since his change of luck too.

    Best marketing campaign KTM could have put $$$ in to.
    Always rooted for him in MotoGP. I like the underdog.
    Will definitely go see him race MA.

    I love it when great things happen to great people - this is seriously impressive for Danilo and a killer bit of karma after his KTM, well, pulled a KTM earlier in the Dakar. ;)

    I wonder if we’ll see more crossover of road racing stars that have legit dirt chops to rally.
