Rallye Aïcha des Gazelles

Emily Miller and Wendy Fisher of Team 109 - Rod Hall Racing are only the second all-American team of Gazelles in the history of the Rallye. Leg 1 proved to be more of a challenge for our two American Gazelles than the Prologue...

Sylvie and Véronique - Team 117 Etrib – have long finished their breakfast while some competitors are still lining up at the buffet. Up at 3:45, "to be well rested" (sic), these Gazelles prefer "having time to look over our maps and notes before the start" Their trick to being well organized: a colour code that they developed together to identify the various geographic regions of the Rallye. This morning they admit that they hope to be back at the bivouac around 18:00-19:00 "for cocktails!"
Opinion of the Sport PC Director at the end of the afternoon: given their present position, they could be right on time for an evening drink!
