Amnon Romano.
Joined the IBA in 2009, and done all my 10 certified rides within the boundary of Israel. As Israel is 270 miles long and 50 miles wide - I usually do my multi days adventures elsewhere on the globe (EUR, USA, AUS).
This is going to be my first rally and I admit to have many concerns. I know I can do the miles and plan a route - but 'till now I took my time planning, and never done it "on the clock".
I believe I'm going to ask quite a few questions here in the months to come; please be patient with this rookie.
I will be riding alongside a riding buddy with whom I've ridden countless miles.
My personal goal is to solve the challenges of a complex rally and become a finisher, no matter in which position.
So, in this regard, I'm on the other edge of the spectrum from Mr. Kerkhof above...
