As a participant in the Dakar, you must possess a good sense of direction and can find. These qualities had rider Bastiaan Nijen Twilhaar not necessary, however, when he was in Buenos Aires someone newcomer in the list that has been around since 2003 in our country unaccounted for.

The rider from Vriezenveen ran in a shirt with Dutch imprint by the Argentine capital, when a wanderer from him aanschoot. The man turned out to be a fellow countryman, who has been here for 12 years is missing. The man asked Sebastian whether he is against his sister in the Netherlands wanted to say that he was still alive. “That’s what we’ve done,” says Bastiaan. We guess that his family is happy to hear that he is unharmed somewhere on the other side of the world walking around. And it’s all thanks to a rally. (via RTV Ooooooost)

UPDATE: oops, the wanderer appears not really missing, but a schizophrenic alcoholic, as new messages. The “lost Dutchman” is Fabian van Acken in Argentina every Dutch citizen would accost with the same onzinverhaal. He then tells that his sister looking for him and then ask the message to give. “We have on several occasions tried to get him to the Netherlands to pick up, but money for airfare is drinking he is away. It is a schizophrenic alcoholic,” says the now of the television show Missing. His sister wants nothing to do with him; it was apparently his father who, years ago, contacted the editors of Missing.
