M A U R I T A N I EL'AVENTURE EN LIBERTÉ
DARE AND GO FOR IT A. SPORTY BUT NON-TECHNICAL CHALLENGES :
. You have the spirit of an adventurer and you’re not afraid
. You’re resourceful and quick-thinking
. You’re always in a good mood
. You’re ready to take on a challenge
SO DON’T HESITATE !
Come and experience an extraordinary adventure, in the heart of one of the most legendary regions on Earth : the Sahara.
TWO WAYS TO GO :
1. Your own challenge
Are you preparing an adventure in the Mauritanian Sahara ?
I can accompany you with my 2CV to provide support and film your expedition.
2. A turnkey adventure
Don’t have a specific project but feel the urge to go for it ?
Join one of the adventures I organize each year : I take care of all the preparation and equipment.
In both cases, the spirit remains the same : a voluntary approach.
Only a contribution toward fuel costs is required.
HOW DID THE IDEA COME ABOUT ?
In 2023, I supported my 17-year-old son as he crossed the Mauritanian Empty Quarter on an electric fatbike. In doing so, I shared with him my passion for the Sahara and for pushing beyond one’s limits.On his face, I could see the intensity of the emotions sparked by this unique adventure. It became clear to me then :To repeat the experience with others.
In November 2024, it will be Nathalie, a professional cyclist, for a crossing of the Empty Quarter. I will provide her with the electric fatbike.A two-wheel-drive fatbike, supplied by my sponsor Gorille Cycles, a French company.
In December 2025, Henriette plans to cross the Empty Quarter on her motorcycle. I will carry the fuel and equipment for her.Henriette has already traveled nearly 250,000 km around the world, and I know she won’t back down from anything. An authentic adventurer, driven by a contagious zest for life
In January 2026, I’m taking Carole on a bikerafting crossing of the Banc d’Arguin National Park. I will provide her with a non-electric fatbike and handle support on an electric fatbike.
Carole is not an athlete at all, but her motivation is obvious—and it will prove itself in the face of difficulty.
WHAT ADVENTURES ARE PLANNED FOR WINTER 2026/2027 ? 1. Crossing the Sahara along the Atlantic coast through the Banc d’Arguin National Park.
500 km by sea kayak. Kayak and equipment provided. 2. Crossing the Empty Quarter by moped The wildest area of the Sahara, without a single water point.
1,000 km of sand and dunes. Peugeot 103 and equipment provided. 3. Scouting expedition by non-electric fatbike for a long-distance ultra- cycling project : The Trace Nomade
1,700 km, two-thirds off-track with navigation. Open only to athletes in the discipline, professional or amateur, with a minimum level of experience required. Fatbike and logistics provided. 4. North-South Crossing of the Mauritanian Empty Quarter — 1,000 km by Fatbike, in full autonomy and without any support. Crossing never successfully completed (my 2025 attempt). Extreme mental and physiological adaptation required (water / food). Only if you have solid and confirmed experience. Fatbike not provided.
