ROADBOOK READER NOT REQUIRED! JUST AN ANDRIOD SMART PHONE OR TABLET w/GPS CAPABILITIES!
NO iOS devices will work this year. We have had too many scoring issues with participants using iOS devices.
We are excited to host our 7th Roadbook Rally Raid. Each one has grown in popularity and we have listened to your feedback. This year we are doing 3-days, with a Mandatory Prologue on Day 1. And days 2 & 3 each consist of 280km-350km of navigational challenges each day. You will have to participate all three days to be eligible for prizes and awards. We have teamed up with Terra Pirata, who has developed a state of the art customizable digital roadbook navigation app to track and score your routes. This will track the participants' Waypoints, Speed Zones, Penalties, and Time. Zacker Adventures will supply Camping or Lodging for 3 nights, Breakfast on 3 mornings, Dinner on 2 evenings, and a Shit Ton of Fun!
We will have awards for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd places for ALL Classes (see below for class designations). Each Moto will have to use the Terra Pirata App for Tracking, Waypoint, and Speed Zone verification. The App is FREE for you to use during the event.
***Recommended Terra Pirata App Tutorial***
Penmerryl Farm will be the central bivouac for this event.
Penmerryl Farm has full amenities (private showers and toilets) for the campers. We also have options for lodging, please see pricing below.
This year we will not be holding a "Roadbook Navigation Class". We recommend you watch these 4 YouTube videos to learn how to read a roadbook, or polish up your roadbook reading skills.
