I could not decide where to drop the Dakar 2026 thread.
Dirty BARF?? ADV??? Generally speaking it is sort of both in ways. So Generally it is.
Maybe we will engage a few folks who have not paid attention to one of the most fascinating motorcycle racing events.
Quick summary to start:


Daniel Sandars 2025 Winner

Tosha Scharieina, Daniel Sanders and Adrian Van Beveren were the podium dudes in '25
Some quick links:
Dakar website: https://www.dakar.com/en
Route: https://www.dakar.com/en/overall-route

Photo's from 2025: https://www.dakar.com/en/gallery/image/best-of-2025
Competitors (Bikes): https://www.dakar.com/en/competitors

It is fun to follow and a bit exhausting to follow live as it means late nights but the website does a decent job of keeping things up to date.
If there was a streaming buy in I would be in, but this is the USA and not France.
Please share your secret sources for the good stuff. Lots of international news for this event.

Come join Daniel for the fun. DAKAR!
