A
POSSIBLE WINNER
Watch out for number 77: behind it lies a real favourite.
Having been crowned last year for the 4th time, Claude
COMPAIN proudly wears his age on his breast-plate. He's
the man to beat if you want to get onto the podium in
the Veteran IV category. It won't be an easy task we can
tell you.
SIGN
HERE PLEASE !
Patrick BACCHETA will be sporting a tee-shirt covered
in signatures from all his friends. When he's not encouraging
his comrades to do graffiti, he runs round a stadium to
raise money for underprivileged children to go on holiday.
One small point: he runs for 24 hours.
TEAMS
HELICOPTER !
In the film "Jour de Fête", Jacques TATI proved
an admirable postman. Now it's the turn of the 3 runners
from the "l'ASPTT LYON " (Lyon Post Office) to enjoy living
through a few "jours de fête" of their own... Gérard
PETIT, Claude GAY and Jacques MARECHET will be loyal to
their posts when the race kicks off.
GENEROUS
BRETONS
What a heart the "AR ROAZHONIZ" team have! Didier LE MAUFF
(15th in 99) is running to give a sound and healthy image
to adventure sports, Patrick RENAULT (39th in 99) to push
himself even harder than last year and Pierrick LETANNEUR
(70th in 99) so that a close friend feels encouraged to
see through the year 2000. With that kind of motivation
there's every chance they'll improve on their 7th place
in 1999.
TEAMS
HIT THE DESERT CUP TOO "LE LOTUS BLEU"
They're 3 doctors, they're into Tintin and they wouldn't
miss out on adventure for anything in the world. Bruno
THOMAS, Philippe NEUSCHWANDER and Alain GIFFARD love nothing
more than having feet in the sand, head in the stars.
Mad about the desert, they'll be in for a real treat in
discovering JORDAN and joining up with their mates from
MDS.
THOMSON
Anyone who loves running knows Karim MOSTA. As an emblematic
figure in the company THOMSON, he just goes from one adventure
to another. Having teamed up with Christian GINTER for
quite a few years now for the MDS, they make a formidable
duo. Another globe-trotter in the form of Marc LOUBOUTIN
will be joining them to make up the DESERT CUP team.
