Riding flat out AND reading this roadbook at the same time 🤯

@shannonbaz-casper7745 5 месяцев назад

SUPER tough. Now try doing it really old school without an auto-advancing rollchart!

@DeepSouthBuilder 5 месяцев назад

?? This is a VERY simple navigation system. Especially considering competitors that read a lot of different languages. They’ve taken a huge portion of the judgement calls and interpretations out of the equation from traditional map and compass navigation. It’s Mapquest for off road driving.

@richardhague3455 5 месяцев назад

@shannonbaz. They don’t have an auto advancing roll chart the toggle switch on the handlebars moves it forwards and backwards. O and it’s called a road book not a roll chart 😂

@shannonbaz-casper7745 5 месяцев назад

@@richardhague3455 not sure what's so funny about that. Their "road book" in many other types of racing (such as motorcycle enduro/adventure/dual sport ) is called a "roll chart" and it is the exact same thing with a similar format and the same types of information, so we're honestly talking semantics here. I didn't notice the toggle switch, but even an electrified one seems like a huge luxury while the rest of us are over here scrolling our roll charts (or road books/route sheet/whateverTF you want to call them) by hand :-)

@richardhague3455 5 месяцев назад

@shannonbaz what’s funny is you thinking that the Dakar rally on a bike is going to be made harder by turning a knob rather than pressing a toggle switch. I don’t know what motorbike enduro,adventure, dual sport racing you ride but maybe you could get Sam Sunderland to give it a try, as a 2 time Dakar winner, he might need more of a challenge racing you😂😂😂😂

@roitofficial 5 месяцев назад

"That was just 5km, normally we do 300 - 400" Add the fatigue, elements and 14 days, gives great perspective to how damn tough this stuff is, huge respect!

@GearHead36 Месяц назад

It's the toughest type of Motorsport there is, after all. You don't just win a cross-country rally, especially Dakar. *You finish it.* Indeed, winning is preferable, but in a race like this? You'd be really freaking lucky to reach the Finish Line in an undamaged vehicle.

@RedBullRally 5 месяцев назад

@bluerebel1148 5 месяцев назад

I played that Dakar Desert Rally game that released last year I think, and it actually does a decent job of teaching you how to use a road book! At first it was frustrating but once you learn what everything means (and you turn off that annoying Co-driver and open up the index and learn the symbols) you start to blaze thru some stages and it so thrilling! The only reason I understood what was going on in the video was because of that game, lol. I bet alot of people were lost during this but I'm sure our rider tried to do his best. He was Riding, navigating, and trying to talk over that loud bike, lol.

@anotherweirdperson5382 5 месяцев назад

Yeah I learned how to read the roadbook thanks to the older dakar game (Dakar 18 I think) and I got Dakar Desert Rally on launch lol, the best part is that the game uses the exact same road book of the Dakar 2020, 2021 and 2022, no simplified version for beginners or anything, just the exact same road book :D

@bluerebel1148 5 месяцев назад

@anotherweirdperson5382 Yeah, that game is awesome for that, too! Make driving fast a bit more interesting!

I can understand WRC pacenotes and it’s pretty straight forward because you’re following a track. I could not do Dakar😅 middle of nowhere, probably one singular rut showing where to go

@Toxic88088 5 месяцев назад

@rikiz98 5 месяцев назад

Basically, being that sometimes they get lost or real POI are not as explicit as they are in the roadbook, it being manual lets the rider go up and down the imdications as they wish

@General-Failure 5 месяцев назад

Automatic scrolling of the roadbook would require knowing the precise location of the rally vehicle at all times, like a satellite navigation system does, and that information is not made available to the drivers. The Dakar, being an orienteering race, does not permit GPS based navigation, but only uses the technology to register that vehicles reached their mandatory waypoints (Way Point Controlled, WPC).

Oh Man! From my comfortable gamer seat it so easy to watch motorbikes going with high speed so easily in such road conditions - but looking this from rider perspective how difficult it is, following the navigation, in the meantime keeping the speed and momentum to finish the race in the top, also making sure you don't get fall off the bike, rolling the roadbook, checking Compass...OMG such a complex task.

Great Demo Sam. Super difficult. I used to navigate in a old Datsun 1600 rally car here in Aus in the novice Combine 6 series using mud maps (forestry maps) back in the late 80's early 90's. That was tough but you guys have is so much more difficult. And doing all that yourself on the fly at 160 kph. Huge kudos brother. Sorry to hear your out Day 3 with Mechanical issues. Maybe next year.

on race, are the black buttons will be disabled to lock the odometer? I mean, if you accidentally push the button, your odo meter will be out of synch with the Road book.
