Espen and I went to Bjerke Travbane today to see Petter and Henning Solberg, Sebastien Loeb, Mikko Hirvonen, Jari-Matti Latvala and all the other rally drivers do their first SS of Rally Norway 2009, the super spesial.

It was fun, we got to see Pål Anders Ullevålseter on his bike, the KTM car and a combined FMX and snowmobile show. Then finally what we came to see, the rally.
