Dakar: Lyndon Poskitt explains malle moto rules

The Dakar Rally is already just about the hardest race on two wheels – but while the guys at the front have teams of mechanics, technical support, and warm beds at night, there’s another bunch of nutters who make the race even harder for themselves; the malle moto class.

Allowed almost no outside assistance at all, Brit Lyndon Poskitt, who’s currently lying third in the class, explains just what support they’re allowed to have.
