Route & Navigation: The event route is tailored to suit a range of rider abilities, from those starting out in their first few years of adventure riding to seasoned adventure pros (we strongly advise that riders should have, at minimum, two years of off-road riding experience). To cater for this variety of riders levels, each day’s route can be traversed in your own time, at your own pace, with two route options available daily – Main Route and Breakout Routes.
The Main Route will offer easier tracks for riders – gravel roads, forest tracks and more flowing offroad mixed with scenic bitumen transport sections. Breakout Routes will be graded on our ‘chilli system’ rating, to advise riders on how spicy they are! And will feature more challenging terrain including rocky ascents and descents, single track and creek crossings.
Navigation for riders will be via GPS, with arrows to assist throughout the day and daily route sheets provided at Riders Briefings including points of interest, suggested lunch stops and fuel stations.
