00:03 We know we're all in the same boat, same dream,
00:09 in a project that motivates us hugely for Alex,
00:12 that makes our relations indestructible.
00:14 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:17 It all starts with the story of twin brothers, Alex
00:24 and Carlos Libre.
00:27 Five years ago, Alex passed away after a motorbike accident
00:31 in Madrid.
00:32 He left us many surprises.
00:33 One of the surprises that we found in the desk of his home,
00:37 a list of 101 dreams to accomplish in his life.
00:41 Fifth position there was to do the Dakar on a bike.
00:48 A dream that would be lived by his brother and five mates.
00:53 All one means Alex Dibe and all for one.
00:56 The origin of the project is Alex telling us
00:59 life is to be lived and that each one of us
01:02 has to accomplish his dream.
01:03 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:07 For a total of six friends, a team of very close friends,
01:10 riders ready to take on his dream.
01:15 For me, it's a way of comprehending life.
01:18 Life is short-lived.
01:21 It goes by very quickly.
01:23 And the important thing is to pursue your dreams.
01:27 And after two years of preparation,
01:30 they showed up on the start podium of the Dakar.
01:33 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:37 It was a very strong emotion.
01:44 I cried.
01:51 Think of how proud Alex would have been with us
01:54 for all the all one has done to be at this Dakar.
01:57 All wearing white, all on our bikes,
02:04 after two years of hard work, it was indescribable.
02:08 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:13 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:16 It was a super hard Dakar for me,
02:25 but an adventure like no other.
02:27 I wouldn't change it for anything.
02:30 We're all new at this, young, and we have a huge advantage.
02:34 We're a team.
02:35 The Dakar is an individual event,
02:37 but we are taking it on as a team.
02:39 And that gives you an energy that most won't have.
02:42 [MUSIC PLAYING]
02:45 The level of camaraderie and this friendship
02:50 that links us all makes us brothers.
02:53 The Dakar is a lot harder than I'd imagined, much harder.
02:58 It's like an introspective experience
03:01 in which we dig deep, deep inside.

03:08 [SPEAKING SPANISH]
03:12 [SPEAKING SPANISH]
03:15 [SPEAKING SPANISH]
03:18 [SPEAKING SPANISH]
03:20 I believe the dream is accomplished.
03:23 I can say that being here is already a victory.
03:26 Now, we just want to enjoy it.
