I loved motorcycles before I understood them, and Dakar was a place I met on film long before I met it as a race. The column moving through sand, the radio chatter, the stories of those who didn't return. This ride heads to the same name but with three orphanages as its destination — a different story laid over that image.

No bike, no total distance disclosed. Waiting on the follow-up.

Riding for three orphanages gives it a point. Not just an adventure.

No Man's Land isn't somewhere you enter alone. Kit is everything.

That stretch has always been talked about in terms of mines and navigation.

Italy to Dakar. A dream route, but you feel every kilometre of it.

Can you actually just ride through Mauritania on a bike?
