Tragedy in the Iron Butt Rally 2009

Devastating news this morning regarding Davo Jones, an Aussie competitor in the 2009 IBR held in the USA. Davo hit a deer less than 3 hours from completing this 11 day event. His family report that he has sustained a serious head injury and that his condition is grave. Davo is the founder of FarRiders, a long distance motorcycling group in Oz.

For those who are unfamiliar with the IBR here is what it's all about click here

Sad news from the FarRider's website this afternoon from Davo's family that he has died as a result of his injuries.


RIP Davo Jones.
