Adventurers from head to toe and to the very tips of their beards, Claude and Bernard Marreau had already travelled through Africa on several occasions when Thierry Sabine announced the creation of Paris-Dakar in 1978. They were the first to sign up for this adventure which was tailor-made for crazy guys like them. For their first two participations, they took part in a Renault 4L transformed into a 4x4 in their garage in Nanterre, in the Parisian suburbs. However, it was only in 1982, behind the wheel of a Renault 20, that the brothers finally achieved success on the shores of Lac Rose.
