Budapest-Bamako Rally – An Adventure Across Borders
It is expected that between 100 and 120 teams will take on the challenge of the 3rd Budapest-Bamako Rally in January 2008. Unlike other rallies - such as the Paris to Dakar rally, which mainly attracts well-financed professional racers - the Budapest-Bamako rally has been created to give “amateur” adventurers the thrill of experiencing a Europe to Africa rally at a reasonable cost. Participants are advised that motorbikes and 4x4 vehicles are most suited to rally conditions, but there are few official restrictions and virtually anything on wheels can join in this road trip of a lifetime.
