THE DAKAR & AFRICA

The Dakar and Africa

On the one side, bikes, cars and trucks. On the other, Africa, with its forests, villages and the Sahara. A shock of contrasts, in appearance; in reality, an avant-garde concept. The Dakar arose from an inspiration which enabled two worlds to encounter each other and a special relationship to emerge. On the surface it seems to be just a sporting venture, but, beneath this, lies another realm. The taste for adventure and for discovering a misunderstood continent has given birth to an intriguing, emotion-manufacturing machine.

After 28 years of history, the relationship between the Dakar and Africa has reached maturity. It is no longer an affair of finer feelings, but of a real exchange between adult partners, where enjoyment and working side by side are the orders of the day. The Dakar has moved on and found its place in a modern Africa.
