    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    That rally is a little too hard core for my taste. Hats off to the men and women who compete!

    Re: Dakar 2012

    Ned took 53rd overall! Not bad for a first timer....or a 50th timer! Plus, he was the only American left in the field. How impressive is that?

    What an amazing race! I'm in awe of the way that those guys and girls ride. Oh, and btw, of course the top two riders were on KTM.
