Conclusion of our chat with Tod Davidson. Some great stuff in here about what makes the Dakar special, and why it must continue!

If anyone has contacts at British Airways, and can help Don out with his predicament, please email me at RallyRAIDio at g mail . com (no spaces) Thanks!

Tod and I chat about RallyRAIDio and its future, as well as what his teammates Don Hatton and Jonah Street must be going through.

Tod and I chat about the whirlwind events of the day over a couple of beers. Tod was scheduled to run the Dakar before having a life-threatening crash only two weeks before the event. Was his fate more or less frustrating than those denied within hours of the start? Good question.

Richard gives us his completely candid reaction to the cancellation of the 2008 Dakar Rally. He is not impressed, to say the least. A bit of audio garble in a few spots -- I apolgize for that and have tried to clean it up as best I can.

Charlie's comments after the cancellation.  The wiley veteran.

This is one of the most gut wrenching things I've ever heard. If this doesn't hit you, go watch some Nascar. You don't belong here.

Chat with Stan from FrontrowGB as he reacts to the cancelation of the 2008 Dakar rally only hours before the scheduled start.

Chat with Robb from back at the hotel post cancelation. Raw stuff.

This impromptu chat with Dave immediately after the announcement does not necessarily reflect the opinions of Team FrontrowGB or Adventure-spec. It does reflect the opinions of RallyRAIDio.

Dave rings in with reaction from Great Britain with the terrible news.

Jonah Street, contender for the overall motorcycle win, calls in with his gutted reaction just moments after the announcement of cancellation of the rally.

Robb confirms from Lisbon. The rally is done this year due to terrorist concerns.

Robb's headed to a meeting -- major development!
