We’re starting to get little bits and pieces of information trickling in from sources and readers who are paying attention to this year’s Dakar race. We’ll post the full story once we have it, but in the meantime, here’s a post for random things as they get sent in. Starting with the above photo from the starting line. Thanks for sending it in, Jack. If you’ve found info on the race, please use the contact page to send it our way.
