KTM ADVENTURE RALLY RIDERS OFFERED THE ULTIMATE RACE OPPORTUNITY

Jun 21, 2018

For those who are attending this year’s KTM ADVENTURE RALLIES on a twin cylinder KTM ADVENTURE bike, KTM is excited to announce the possibility to compete for a place at the Ultimate Race – an event that will take place as part of the 2019 Merzouga Rally in Morocco with a fully supported ride on the all-new KTM 790 ADVENTURE R.

The Ultimate Race is a special opportunity at the Merzouga Rally for the top two qualifiers from each KTM ADVENTURE RALLY this year to compete in an exclusive class at the Dakar series race in Morocco. The fully supported ride includes flights, accommodation, entry fees, as well as a KTM 790 ADVENTURE R to race on with a full race service. Competitors will be given a fantastic opportunity to be coached by some of the world’s finest and fastest offroad bikers, and be treated like factory supported riders during the trip in which they will negotiate some of the most epic terrain. The winner of the Ultimate Race will receive an incredible prize, which will be announced shortly.

The Merzouga Rally is a race over five days plus a prolog and includes a marathon stage in the Moroccan desert. Stages are varied, navigation is key and the race enjoys entries from a wide range of abilities from amateur rally riders, to the factory pros. The Ultimate Race will take place over Merzouga’s varied terrain in a route specifically designed with bike and rider in mind, in parallel with the pro class of the Merzouga Rally.

To be in with the chance of winning a place at the Ultimate Race, those entering one of the six KTM ADVENTURE RALLIES* this year on a twin cylinder machine will be able to sign-up to race a qualifying section during the course of each event. The top two riders from each of the KTM ADVENTURE RALLIES, which this year take place in Italy, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Canada and USA, will be awarded with the Ultimate Race opportunity. The KTM ADVENTURE RALLIES provide KTM customers and fans with the possibility to embrace the spirit of KTM in an organized tour where riders can enjoy epic dirt roads, powering through unchartered forests and the possibility to conquer extreme riding territory whilst sharing it all with like-minded riders.
