stage 1 - Saturday 31 December 2005 | Lisboa > Portimão (http://www.dakar.com/2006/DAK/LIVE/us/100/parcours.html)
Connection 186 km
Special 83 km
Connection 101 km
Total 370 km
The tracks of Alentejo
Fine-tuning the preparation of the machine and testing its capacities in racing conditions are the usual exercises in Europe. For the first time, competitors must also try out their hand at navigation. Tracks, and fast ones at that, are ideal for riding and driving, but there will be as many traps as there are changes in direction. There will be a real overall classification on New Year’s Eve.
