- It’s What We Do
The third running of the 7000km, 14-day, non-competitive adventure rally had it all: superb weather, roads and trails in excellent condition and a challenge here and there to keep all 80 or so riders on their toes. Ken Dark zig-zagged his 1190 over the course to keep track of things.
Those that followed our coverage of this epic event may remember the theme in 2013 was wet: wet and muddy, wet and slippery, wet and slow and just plain wet for days on end.
The weather gods this year must’ve been in a good mood because the Rally was mostly dry. Indeed, when we passed through the Snowy Mountains in NSW it was just dusty. There were a few damp patches, just enough to keep everyone honest, but nothing to get excited about.
