Press Release:
Under the credo of “Life is not the dreams you have, but the dreams you realize” starts at September 10th, 2006 at the base of the Eiffel Tower the first edition of “Paris-Dakar by bike”. The finish will be 10 weeks and 7,000 km (4,350 miles) later at 18 November in Dakar, the most western point of Africa. During this unique race/expedition the participants will cover the complete distance between both cities, mostly paved, at their own strength by bicycle. The riders can cover the distance as fast as possible or take it easy and do it at their own speed.
The route covers the countries France, Andorra, Spain, Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal. The riders will have to cross the Pyrenees, the Atlas-mountains of Morocco and the huge Sahara desert. The trip is divided into 58 cycling days and 12 days to rest.
Paris-Dakar is more than just a “normal” bike ride. It’s a combination of the physical challenge, the appreciation of the natural beauty, the view of the cultural inheritance and above all a mental freedom. Next to that, the bike journey is open for cyclists from all around the world to create an exceptional atmosphere, during as well as after the bike ride.
