"Djerba Vintage Rally" cuts-off this trajectory of uncertain and "misleading" evolution and sets the goal of a return to the origins of "species", in order to permit its participants to live those travel and “competition” scenarios that were the soul of the adventure. To do this, it traces the lines of a substantially new and original event with a strong call to "Ancient times", to Legend.
"Let’s ban the new competition bikes and let’s go with the Dantan bikes, no more sophisticated tools and navigation systems, away from all the comforts accessories, but not necessary, to go to find the basic elements of an authentic and genuine adventure-journey in the spirit of the original Rally-Raid," the organizers describe the event.
"And so also put away the racing component as we understand it today. Rally was created to bring an adventure to life. Today, this "philosophy" is repeated in an event that has all the features of the authentic Rally, but is dedicated to an audience of amateurs. And for Desert Racing legend lovers."
Maps, compass, manual odometer, essential road book and not scrambled. Navigating back to being subjected to the use of simple tools and old bikes and return the absolute protagonists of an Age.
In this way the Djerba Vintage Rally wants to replay faithfully the spirit of the first, adventurous Rally, and make understand how you could get in trouble in the first African rallies, even for a small mistake in the interpretation of the road-book, for the approximate mileage provided by the instrument of the time, or the limits of the bikes that often were not the most appropriate for a way to travel that at that time had never existed.
Djerba Vintage Rally brings back to reality those unforgettable moments and that way of living the adventure of the great journey in the big rally, through the proposal of an event that is able to renew and translate on the level of reality that dream whose testimonies are only now, in the old videos.
The scenario of the 1st Djerba Vintage Rally is Tunisia, with a program of 6 stages over the Gateway to the Sahara, from November 15th to 23rd 2014. All information about the rally you can find at the official website here [ DJERBAVINTAGERALLY.IT ].
