Good on you Mario, for jumping in with both feet on that race. Desert riding can be wild and unexpected in many ways. I'm sure an experience you'll always remember.

Any podium in ANY class at this race is Impressive! Period! Congrats!

[@2WR]

Much appreciated!

The 500exc does it ALL✊🏻 Best all around bike!

[@dandersonjr]

I really was expecting some tricked out bike but I'm pleasantly surprised that it wasn't. Makes your placing that much more impressive. Looking forward to a Back in the Garage episode morphing it into whatever you have planned. Thanks.

Well done !!

[@jeman022004]

Good info! Great to see you don’t need the budget of a pro race team. The old saying, it is the Indian and not the arrow. Looking forward to your Dual Sport/Lightweight ADV build. Thinking about going that route myself.

Congrats. How many bikes werein that race?

[@2WR]

10 in our class. I think around 60-70 motorcycles started the race.
