Stage 9 – Copiapo-La Serena – Breaking News

The organisers have announced that they will be postponing the start times for today’s special stage (11.00am, instead of 7.15am) and will shorten the route in order to avoid stragglers arriving too late at the bivouac in La Serena. However, this is nothing for the competitors to rejoice about, because as a result the 9th special will be a 100% sandy route, since it will wind its way through the ranges of dunes above Copiapo. Another original aspect of this 9th special stage, the last to be contested in the Atacama Desert, is a side-by-side start for the bikers, in groups of 20…we’ll keep you posted

When the body’s aching just remember you’re living the dream, not many people get the chance to live their dream in this life and not many have the balls to make it happen when the opportunity arises; For that I admire and respect You.. We’re proud of ya.. Stay Strong,Stay Fast and Stay Safe.. Keep it lit and take that tricolor to the finish Nooner..
