A reliable source tells me the Welsh captain is making the trip home soon to try and recruit Gerriant Jones the well known Honda/Maico rider to bolster their team's chances in the event. And, that he's been working on disguising a late model Husky to enter on himself - looking for reliability.

And the French? Their busy protesting the use of English language, sipping on Latte and preparing their French (Canadian) machines, perhaps trying to colour coordinate their machine colours with their flag.
Unfortunately there is no second source to confirm all of this, so it could be true!
