The once legendary Dakar Rally has left one spiritual heir in Africa. The Budapest-Bamako keeps the flame of trans-Saharan racing alive. The start is not Paris and the finish is not Dakar, but the experience is nearly the same. Bump along the teeth rattling roads of Morocco. Tackle the golden dunes of Mauritania. Dash through the red clay roads of Mali under ancient baobab trees. It's the adventure of a lifetime.
