The extraordinary journey began in Amsterdam with an Ambulance – that then had to disguise itself as a camper van to get through border control.
Remo Schrama, former Managing Director of Amatec explains: “The Amsterdam Dakar Challenge is one of the toughest of challenges and one of the most rewarding. We endured it all, embraced it all and raced over 7800km.
We encountered blow outs, tough border control staff, overnight rainstorms creating oasis – which effected our navigation – and the most colorful and wonderful people.
It was fantastic to carry the Lesjöfors corporate branding, which was seen by everyone taking part and by everyone we passed.”
