I’ve been making my way through all of the available Camel Trophy documentaries by year, last week I posted the hour-long Madagascar Camel Trophy event from 1987 and so in keeping with the Africa theme I decided to feature the Tanzania/Burundi Trophy event from 1991.
If you happen to have the original VHS tapes from the 1980 through 1985 Camel Trophy events (or know where to find them), I’d greatly appreciate an email. The footage is currently not available anywhere online and I’d love to digitise it and upload it so it isn’t lost to history. You can reach me via – editor@silodrome.com
