The Dakar is the last rally of its kind in the world and Ireland has had 4 riders finish the Rally , its also the most dangerous with 48 deaths since its inception in 1978. The turn out is going to be massive as Philip Noone (Dakar 2010 finisher) Andrew Reeves ,Gary Ennis Dakar 2009 and Alan Graham will be attending with Andrew Reeves riding a works BMW GS in the event and helping on the day. There's a Honda 50 run later in the day , plus a weekend long vintage rally. Its a family weekend event and the first time the Paddy Dakar has been run , your welcome to come down I could do with a hand .
