The latter half of the Dakar Rally

BH8P5537

The Dakar Rally’s entering the climax in the latter stage the next few days.

Tomorrow is a fesh-fesh day for Jun. Fesh-fesh means very soft, powder-ish sand. It is very easy to get stuck in fesh-fesh. Besides, vehicles already passed repeatedly over the course and the road gets wilder. It seems that there are many troubles.

Message from Jun:
“I faced a lot of troubles in the first half, but in the second half from tomorrow, I’m driving steadily and keeping my position the next few days, above all.”
Now only five stages away. Please support him till the last!

Rest day

IMG_5032

Jun is staying at Iquique now.

It’s his day off today. Then, He climbed up the sandhill.
What a beautiful view!

While seeing such a wonderful view, Jun’s arms are having muscle pain. Off road driving without power steering was so hard for him.
He tried to get a massage, but he left seeing six people were waiting….

Some drivers prefer to stay at the bivouac to keep their concentration. But Jun needs more relax. I imagine he really wanted to get shoulder-arm massage because he’s suffering a heavy muscle pain. Jacuzzi looks good for his pain, but he said, it’s not hot water! He supposes it’s must be cold, because the jacuzzi in the tent doesn’t get direct sunlight.

    パワステなしという状態を想像できないのでどれだけ大変かわかりませんが、さぞかしお疲れのことでしょう。ジャグジー、見た目は気持ち良さそうですが、実は寒いとは。写真には温度は写らないですからね・・・。また風邪をひかれてもいけないでしょうし。さすがリゾート地の景色は格別ですね。砂丘の向こうにびっしりと建物が林立する町があるなんて、まるで蜃気楼のようですね。素晴らしい景色で英気を養って、明日からの戦いに備えて下さい!

    パワステなしで1000km、舗装路じゃないからね、相当大変だったと思う。1日休んだくらいでは疲れや腕の痛みは取れないだろうけど、後半も頑張れ!!
