Death mars Dakar rally opening


THE death of Argentinian rider Jorge Martinez Boero overshadowed the first day of the Dakar Rally yesterday during which Russia's Leonid Novitzkiy lead the cars section and Chilean Francisco Lopez the motorbikes.
The 38-year-old Boero, making his second appearance on the gruelling rally, suffered a heart attack after being seriously injured in a fall from his Beta bike 2km from the end of the stage between Mar del Plata and Santa Rosa de la Pampa in the west of Argentina.
Organisers said that Boero received medical attention within five minutes of the crash and was airlifted by helicopter, but died on his way to hospital.
Boero, they said, "was the victim of a fall at kilometre 55 of the special of the first stage between Mar del Plata and Santa Rosa".
"The rider suffered a cardiac arrest following his fall and was attended five minutes after the accident by the medical staff, who reached the place of the incident by helicopter.
"The organisers of the rally offer their heartfelt condolences to his family and loved ones."
"Despite their best efforts, the doctors were unable to resuscitate the pilot, who died while he was being taken to hospital.
Boero was the son of a former Argentinian racing champion of the same name who died in 2004. His only previous Dakar Rally appearance last year ended when he crashed into a ravine during stage six in Chile and had to wait eight hours before being rescued.
Boero's death was the 21st of a competitor during a Dakar Rally, organised 29 times in Africa from 1979 before moving to South America in 2009.
In total, 59 people have died during the rally, including more than 20 spectators.
"It's a real tragedy. He's a boy that we knew well," said race director Etienne Lavigne. "There's a lot of emotion at the camp tonight. It will be tough to start tomorrow. But it's the biggest tribute we could give him. The competition continues."

Motorcycling WA Communique
Ten
Neil Price the best of the locals at Australian Trials Championship
Kiwi Jake Whittaker has upset the locals, winning the 2011 Australian
Moto Trials Championship in the Barossa Valley, South Australia.
Motorcycling Western Australia member Neil Price was the best of the
Australian riders, finishing in second ahead of fellow Trials des
Nations teammate Kyle Middleton from New South Wales.
West Australian's Lewis and Alex Nolan finished 7th and 10th which is a
great effort as they have been unable to compete at all event's this
season. This also meant that all WA rider's that competed in the event
finished in the Top Ten in Australia.
Held in the picturesque Barossa Valley over two days, competition was
fierce with Price coming from fifth after the first day to take second
and his third consecutive podium at the National Championship event.
Krisite McKinnon claimed her third Australian Championship, winning the
Women's title ahead of defending champ Michelle Coleman, while Amanda
Cummins (Tier 1) and Lucinda Clarke (Tier 2) blew the field away to take
out the Junior Women's classes.
Jonathon Chellas walked away with the Open Junior title, Connor Hogan
finished top of the pile in the Junior 7-12 class.
Rob Jones was the best of the Masters class, Lachlan Gibson claimed the
Youth class crown, while the team of Luscombe and Sparkes won the
Sidecar title.

Neil Price No 1 Australian Moto Trials Rider 2011
Congratulations Neil.
The rest Team Dynamics also had a good weekend, Lewis and Alex finished 7th and 10th which is a great effort considering that they haven't ridden much this year, so all our senior team riders are in the Aust's top ten. Our junior boy riders Luke and Joel can be proud of their rides. Luke competing in open junior was up against a strong older group of riders but did himself and us proud of his ride. Luke finished 15th of 16 riders but the points difference between 10th and 15th was only 53 points after two days of competition. Luke had some big steps to go up and some very tough sections. Joel riding junior 7-12 year olds finished 4th of 7 riders. Our junior girls Meg & Luci also had a top ride following on from their junior women's cup win. They entered the 2nd tier of women's junior which wasn't a official class but they finished 1st & 2nd with Luci coming out in front. Meg had a ear infection which ended up bleeding, so she was a bit off her game.

Team Dynamics update Aust Nats Barrossa South Oz
Our junior boys team is toughing it out in a very strong field, Luke who is riding against 16 year old A & B grade riders in hard C to easy B sections, in a field of 16 Luke is in 15th but he has had some great rides and some tough ones which are all great experience. Next year Luke will find as the 16 year old juniors move out he will quickly move up the placings. Joel is riding well in the 2nd tier junior sections for his first ever national championships sitting in 4th, Joel has found it fairly tough but is coming to grips with it.
Our juniors girls Megs & Luci are placed 1st & 2nd, can't do better than that. The hard work and training has paid off for the girls.
With a good run tomorrow we could see our team riders moving up a number of positions and in Megs and Luci's case that they hold their position.
2011 Australian Women's Cup win

TDN Sept 2011 Tolmezzo Italy
On the flight over at Dubai airport, Troy Bayliss stopped and said hello to the team and was on the same flight to Milan, he was heading to Italy for testing.
We stayed at the hotel Albergo Trieste in the village Arte Terme. We also had the Canadian, Irish, Portugal and USA teams staying at the hotel, Neil ended up translator for everyone with his basic Italian knowledge.
Wed 14th went practicing just up from the hotel.
Thurs 15th
Went to paddock in Tolmezzo and practiced at the official practise site.
Friday 16th

Sat 17th
Womens TDN, Kristy only Aust woman riding. In morning men's team machine examination, section expection in the arvo
Aust women's team (Kristy) 7th.
Sun 18th Men's TdN
Aust start time 09:32, finish time 16:32, 2 laps of 18 sections, 4 hours allocated to first lap, 3 hours for second lap.
Finished with just seconds to spare, Ross was the overall time keeper, no time penalties. No major problems, had fuel shortage with the Gassa's at section group 12,13 & 14. Neil bent header pipe at section 18, it was leaking at flange gasket, it had torn out one of the bolts. The Beta truck Donato had to drill and tap it. The team went on, we missed section one and caught up with them at section two. My timers stop due to rain on the second lap. Riders couldn't walk the sections on the day, could only look from the tape. On section inspection only riders could walk in the sections. Each section had an observer there during inspection. During the event minders couldn't enter section except to catch. Riders could not touch any markers, observers very tough on touching marker.
Aust finished 4th compared to 7th last year and was only 25 points off 3rd place. Aust also finished ahead of the Irish and the USA. The Irish were stirring us up about the rugby world cup until we beat them in the trial.
The team worked very well together, everything flow well without any hassles. Great result, well done everyone.
2012 TDN will be in Moutier Swiztland.
