I'm a Dakar lover but I'm not in the same league as your good self. *bows down to the Dakar deity*<br /><br />You truly have captured the essence of the Dakar with this post.<br /><br />As an aside, how good are those Mini's? I seriously want one - fully kitted out of course.

The Dakar rally is particularly gruelling and I can understand how seeing the drivers and their teams overcome everything nature throws at them can be really exciting. And you are right - the pictures are stunning. Thanks for giving us an insight into one of your passions.
