Outback Run

This entry is part 12 of 19 in the series Adventure Rider Issue #30

2018 KTM Australia Adventure Rallye Outback Run 280 riders signed up for KTM’s annual Rallye and ran from 500km south of Darwin down to Alice Springs. For Danny Wilkinson, it was an incredible, mind-blowing eight days.

I don’t think anyone can appreciate how truly expansive this Wide Brown Land is until they venture beyond the coastal fringe. Some would argue that there isn’t much to see once you head inland (it’s lost on New Zealanders in particular) but there’s a rugged simplicity to the land. When you peer out of your swag in the morning to a sunrise that is almost too vivid for your early morning senses to process, or you find yourself staring aimlessly down the Victoria River as its trail of greenery makes its way through harsh landscapes, these are the times when you are thankful to be an Australian and exploring the outback on a motorcycle.
