Interview with Dakar finisher Chris Jones, shortly after he returned home. Incredible stories!  Part 1 of our interview.  Stay tuned for the rest!

Dave Lomax from Adventure-spec.com calls in to promo their support of Team FrontrowGB. Thanks for the hard work, lads!

Richard's spent the entire afternoon going through scrutineering, but has made it through without a hitch. The bike is now in Parc Ferme, so nothing left but to sit back and enjoy the atmosphere until the start! Cheers, Richard!

Don calls in from Lisbon as the excitement mounts! Standing on the Starting Podium was a dream (before the security guards kicked him off, but he'll get his chance in a couple of days again), and there's an Olympic buzz about the city. Thanks for bringing us alongside you, Don!

Robb calls in and details the plan for a very busy day, as they put the final preparations in place!

Charlie calls from the hotel in Lisbon, and puts Phillip Symmons on the spot for a report. Robb then disconnects the phone. Way to go, Robb.

Jonah and the boys are putting the finishing touches on the bikes, and trying to stay dry in Lisbon.

A quick Skype chat with Richard as he awaits scrutineering. Documents are in, weather is very rainy. Good luck tomorrow, Richard!

Richard is packed, and departing his home in Italy enroute to Lisbon for the start of the Dakar, 2008. Some of his travel documents have not yet been returned, but he hopes to have that cleared up by Monday. No time to spare! Travel safe, Richard, and we'll look forward to hearing from you from Lisbon.
