Jonah Street and Casey McCoy are in Australia, prepping for the start of the Australian Safari Rally tomorrow.  Jonah took his first ride on his Top 1 Oil Ross Mitchell & Associates Yamaha Australia WR450F yesterday, and was pleased with the setup.

 

He and Casey will head out this morning for another suspension testing ride, and then the race starts heading for Perth, about 4000 miles away, tomorrow.

 

The media attention is huge..  Jonah and Casey were both interviewed by the rally's media director yesterday, Casey has a radio interview this afternoon, Jonah is scheduled for several radio interviews next week, and they are both on a sightseeing tour with the media later this afternoon.

 

It's only going to get more and more hectic with media as Jonah and Casey show the Aussies how they can ride!

 

Look for them:  Jonah is #8, Casey is #7.  Daily results are available here: www.australiansafari.com.au
