Q8Oils Helps Team Digest Race Across Desert To Dakar

27 April 2007

Team Digest riders Paul Knight & Dave Newman successfully completed the Heroes’ Legend race to Dakar on their Q8Oils supported Yamaha XT500, the same type used in the early Dakar rallies. Having covered more than 6,500 kilometres, their motorcycle & 4-wheel drive team raced from Paris to Dakar through France, Spain, Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal, completing the gruelling competition in overall 21st place and 13th in their class - an impressive result for two riders with no previous experience of rallies or desert riding on a bike that is nearly 30 years old.
