<p> <strong>THE RAID 4L TROPHY ? WHAT IS IT ABOUT ? </strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> First of all, it is important to keep in mind that the <a href="http://www.4ltrophy.com/?lang=en" target="_blank">Raid 4L Trophy</a> is not only a great humanitarian adventure but also a sportive one that brings people together around the same collective goal: solidarity. Indeed, it gathers, every year, hundreds of students from 18 to 28 years old !</p> <p>  </p> <p> Of course, it has nothing to do with a speed contest. The challenge is actually about crossing the finish line after having avoided the traps of the mountains, the dunes and of oueds!</p> <p>  </p> <p> It is thanks to solidarity, to team spirit, to mutual assistance as well as to the surpassing of oneself that everyone wins. However, this is not all yet … To be perfectly achieved, this challenge requires the carrying of sportive material as well as school supplies to highly impoverished children in <strong>Morocco</strong> !</p> <p>  </p> <p> Actually, thanks to the association “<a href="http://enfantsdudesert.org/" target="_blank">Les Enfants du Désert</a>” ( The Children of the Desert), <strong>25 000 children</strong> benefit from donations and receive education in a good environment.</p> <p>  </p> <p> <iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="269" src="//cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailymotion.com%2Fembed%2Fvideo%2Fx1vt4ko&amp;wmode=opaque&amp;src_secure=1&amp;url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dailymotion.com%2Fvideo%2Fx1vt4ko_film-de-presentation-raid-4l-trophy-2015_auto&amp;image=http%3A%2F%2Fs1.dmcdn.net%2FFEWoW%2Fx240-2fd.jpg&amp;key=ff2702755d9749cda571c6d6c2f3eb46&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=dailymotion" width="480"></iframe></p> <p>  </p> <p>  </p> <p> <strong>THE TONTONS RIDERS, THIS IS US ! </strong></p> <p>  </p> <p> We are the #886 team of Raid 4L Trophy 2015.
