Whenever Robin Bourhis has a new video, we know it’s going to be well worth a look! Here’s his latest for Traffic Distribution and Le Comptoir Bike Shop! However, this video is really just to help raise awareness about a charity project he’s working on that sounds really cool! Check out the video, then get all the details down below!
““This project isn’t just a regular video part for my local bike shop “Le Comptoir Bike Shop”, it has another aspect which I am really chuffed to tell you about.
In February 2022, I will be taking part in a humanitarian rally-race called “The 4L Trophy” with a very good friend of mine, Katell. It is a yearly humanitarian rally onboard the mythical Renault 4L across France, Spain and Morocco that aims to provide children with a better educational system in Morocco. Every year, there are over 2000 teams that take part in this project. Each team is formed by 2 people under the age of 28 and we have to bring as much schooling supplies, sporting equipment and food as possible. Every donation will be given away to charities to help build new facilities across the region of Errachidia. In addition to the humanitarian aspect, the aim of the rally is not to be the fastest team but to be able to reach the meeting points by doing as few kilometers as possible using only a map and a compass.
However, in order to meet our budget we need to raise some money and to do so, we can either find sponsorships or people willing to donate a little bit of money for the project. In short, our global budget is broken down into several things such as: the purchase of the car, the repairs, the fees of enrollment & communication, fuel and toll, bank and insurance fees, food and equipment for the race and last but not least : Donations for children.
When I talked to David (the owner of the shop) about this special adventure, he was willing to provide us with financial help but in exchange, I had to make a video part. A couple months later, I was done filming and the video really started taking shape. I hope this video will get people pumped to go out and have fun on their bikes because this is what BMX is all about to me.

We also set up an online money pot for those who want to donate some money for the project, even little donations mean a lot to us and to the children in Morocco. Here’s the link!
Thank you BMX!” – Robin Bourhis
