  • In this episode, I cover Stages 2 and 3, including rain and Red Flags!
    ‪@OfficialDakar‬ 2023
    Stage 2 was a long day and I was getting into a good routine back at the bivouac with servicing and cleaning the bike and onto a few surprises in Stage 3 and the thought of another protein bar... well, you can see from my reaction!
    ** In some stages, there was more onboard footage and in some none, I had to remember to press record!
    I hope my camera skills don't stop you from enjoying these!
    Don't forget to ask any questions in the comments below, I will get to them.
    A massive thanks to all my personal sponsors and everyone who got involved to get me to @OfficialDakar Rally 2023.

    When you mentioned Monday 2 ND of Jan I cringed and laughed thinking about the 3 ribs I broke and my trip to A&E that same day!

    I really look forward to Sundays waiting for the next part of your adventure. To try get the balance of racing, resting and repairing the bike is challenging on the body I can imagine, Kudos

    Superb vlog...incredible the scenery and riding terrain you come across and with the weather conditions changing so fast too riding to adjust for them takes skill and expertise

    Just catching up, and just WOW. Wet boots for the morning...noooo! Out of interest what camera and mount did you use, its solid, no shaking yet your bones must've been rattling on every bump. Sorry if you've already answered that somewhere else. Cheers.

    Dad , dad can we go camping this Spring ? ‘errrr …..No
    Those weather conditions must’ve been a shocker ?! Great onboard footage & terrain . Wonder how you feel now looking back at it ? 👍👍

    • @jameshillierracing
      @jameshillierracing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Seems a bit surreal that I actually did it tbh. Watching back helps though.

      Because there was so much water on floor and not ideal for small tents we all stayed in one of the big marquees the organisers were using for an office. They moved the desks for us and literally rashes out on The floor
