Thierry Sabine´s Dakar


There´s a tree in the african desert that none of the original participants of the Paris-Dakar Rally will forget easily. Around it are Thierry Sabine´s ashes, creator and promoter of the rally, the with the years became the classic competition for motorcycles and cars, and reference point to any adventure that any human ever imagined.

Sabine paid with his life the intention to cross the desert and finish in Dakar, in the heart of Senegal, leading a group of dirty vehicles. His organization followed the traced route and very year stopped for a  little time to offer a remembrance. The rally even though its very competitive, lives to the spirit of Sabine´s memory.

Today the rally is held in other place, in other continent, but the essence is the same. The biggest automotive adventure that challenges machines and persons is held during two weeks. Its now the time to remember its creator and his essence. Long live Thierry Sabine, long live the Dakar!
