Enduro du Touquet 1987. Yamaha 600 Tenere. Dirt bike beach race at Le Touquet, Normandy, France. --- No releases available, but releases may not be necessary for certain uses.

Once the fast professional drivers have flown through, this first passage developes into a true bottleneck with many hundreds of motorbikers trying to get through at the same time. Motorcycles are strewn all over the place. Many have fallen, others have already broken down. In the meantime, the professional riders are progressing quickly. But their riding style changes from racing full-out as soon as they are approaching the lappers from behind. Outmaneuvering them at high speeds is an art form! After three hours it's all over.....
