Malle Marshals Join us for a Day
Earlier this year the Desert Rose team took our training Academy to the Malle Mile, in the beautiful grounds of Grimsthorpe Castle. The weekend was one full of motorcycles, racing, glamping, motorcycle related art work, music and good vibes. The dedicated team of Marshals work hard in the run up to the event and all weekend to make sure riders and their guests have the best experience.
Well this weekend it was the turn of the Malle Marshals to hang up their overalls for the day and get some off road riding under their belts. Using our late model fleet of Beta Enduro bikes the Marshals were put through their paces. Tackling some tight, single track routes through the trees and a couple of gentle hill ascents and descents.
Towards the end of the day, we took the opportunity to show them part of our skills development area where riders can hone their skills in getting over various obstacles, using pre load techniques and pivot turns to negotiated routes through the woods.
It’s fair to say that everyone had a great day, the team bond was clear to see and we know that the Marshals are ready to face next year’s Malle Beach Race, Malle Mile and their longer Malle Rallies.

Morocco 2023 Back in the Dunes
The team at Desert Rose just love Morocco. The sun, the temperature, the people, the food and of course the riding. Mile after mile of open flowing desert piste, the sand dunes of Ouzina and Merzouga, with the 600 metre plus Cathedral dune being our absolute favourite.

The Greek Odyssey Balkan Edition 2023
The Greek Odyssey is always one of the last events in our busy rallye, rallye raid calendar. This year didn’t disappoint. Although the weather and temperature at the start was a little damp and cold, as we headed south, through Romania and Bulgaria and into Greece we were treated to incredible weather and simply stunning scenery. By the time we got to the coast in Kamena Vourla we had sunshine and 25 degrees. This continued down to Athens where all 21 riders got to the finish line.
Once again partnering with our friends at BikeShed Moto Co this event is just going to get bigger and better every year.

Stage 1 in Autumn Sunshine
Who would have thought we would have to search out some shade in Mid September. Our popular Stage 1 course saw a dozen riders join us in the Autumn Sunshine down in East Sussex. Working through the foundations of off road riding techniques we covered bike handling, body positioning, braking techniques and we tackled ascents and descents. Everyone threw themselves at the exercises enthusiastically and there were smiles all round.
