    Race to Dakar

    Managed to catch the last half hour of this on Friday night.

    Unbelievable to say the least, what an experience.

    Anyone else get to watch it?

    Just finished watching the series. Really enjoyed it - Anyone doing that race is nuts - what an achievement to finish.

    I have only watched the last episode of it, and it looked hardcore, I wish I had recorded all the episodes.

    Its amazing, you dont get a look at the dakar like that on tv normally.
    P.s. some one give both those men a beer

    I loved watching the training he went through in preparation for the Dakar. My lovely partner lent me her Long way down/round/dakar DVD bundle and I've just watched the first few before the start of the race. Hooked already, will probably watch the last ones back to back!

    I got given the 3 disc boxset for christmas,quite enjoyable watching.
    I never really knew the massiveness (thats a word right?) of the Dakar.It certainly opened my eyes to it.Be nice to have the money to have a crack at it oneday
