I have to admit that the chronicle of the sixth stage of the Tunis Rally it is quite simple to write: there was no stage. And you ask yourself, sand? Water? Hardness? Hadn't they all arrived? Well, a bit of everything, although the trigger for it not to run yesterday was that the strong wind in the area caused the tent where the pilots slept went flying.

As it was a very long marathon stage, with more than six hours on the bike, it forced the riders who arrived at the Oubari bivouac to get their bikes ready for the next day. Those who don't, they had to spend the night outdoors.

Once the maintenance was finished and the next day's road book was ready, everyone went to sleep in the drivers' tent until 3 in the morning. Then, the carp flew off and they all had to take refuge in the organization's tent, which was still standing.

I leave you Coma's words, which perfectly describe what happened:

Today, stage still in Libya of 410 kilometers, 397 timed, with sand and dunes.
