It is 1978 Christmas Eve, and in the grey Parisian winter, motorbikes, cars and colourful trucks are lined up along the fountains of the Trocadero.

The few spectators do not seem to want to believe that this merry band of crazies is going to race across Africa.

They don't worry, are together, for the enjoyment, sun, dust, adventure.

There are some expert young men on cars and motorbikes, but absolutely no professional drivers and the preparation of the vehicles is always very simple, sometimes inexistent.

A week later, Max Meynier's broadcast on RTL and the articles by the few journalists present suddenly turn this race into the number one event in France.

It was in the midst of indescribable enthusiasm and unexpected rain that the little caravan of daredevils at the wheel arrived at Dakar... the legend is born.
