Terms used by the DAKAR organisation
 

Can anyone enlighten me???

Two terms used by the DAKAR people ....
1) "LA MALLE"
2) "trunk" riders

Anyone got any idea of the ENGLISH translation of these terms????

Cheers,

Roger

Where did you come across these terms?

here is....
 

yes-
" on se fait la malle?" is a common French expression meaning 'shall we go?'
'Malle' being the word for trunk indicating travel.

'trunk rider' A rider who has his bike usually transported by truck / other vehicle to a destination rather than riding it there-
