Property in France could be the best way to get closer to the annual motorbike and quad endurance races in Le Touqet.

Around half a million motorsport enthusiasts attend every year and over 1,200 participants take part in the 17.8 km race.

The non-stop Motorbike Enduropale takes place on February 6th – 7th 2010, across the sandy dunes in northern France and extends into a family festival through the night.

This year the event also holds a race circuit for young motorcyclists aged 14-17 years old, but at over four kilometres long it’s not intended for beginners.

Anyone looking for a holiday home or interested in investment in property in France who has a passion for motorbike racing might find the Enduro du Touqet an ideal attraction.

In 1975, a press agent at Le Touqet decided to create an event to rival the mass endurance races being held in the USA at the time.
