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.
With the Autumn sun burning bright, we did have to search out the shade and took on plenty of water through the day to keep hydrated. It is so easy for concentration to drop when dehydration kicks in. Our group included experienced road riders taking their first steps off road as well as a few who had not long past their DAS and gained their full bike licences. These new skills learned off road transfer well into improving road riding and slow riding skills, so necessary now in most town and city centres.

ABR 2025 WOW!

Wow, ABR 2025 you didn’t disappoint. The whole Desert Rose Team love our time at Ragley Hall. This event has become the go to event for ADV riders across the UK and beyond. We get the chance to meet with and talk with amazing people who want to get out and ride. We are always super busy, with each day starting with the Trail Briefing, hosted by our good friend Billy “BikeTruck” Ward, followed by multiple taster sessions of our training courses. With the Desert Rose Racing Team on hand to talk about all things rallye as well, it seems we must have spoken to all 20,000 people at least once.

The Morocco 1500

Wow! What an event, we took 50 riders from Marrakesh, down to the majestic dunes of Erg Chebbi in Merzouga, then back up through the national park of Ifrane to Fes. With over 30 riders tackling the Trail Edition, riding through the desert, through river beds, up long steep mountain passes and across the dunes this was an epic adventure. The Tarmac Edition saw riders hit the heights of the High Atlas mountain range, ride some incredible mountain switchbacks, cross the desert to get to the “Bond Volcano” film location and have adventures of their own getting across, round and through some of the many washed out roads.

Malle Mile ’24

2024 saw the 10th Edition of the incomparable Malle Mile. Set in the grounds of the beautiful Grimsthorpe Castle this is a one of a kind event. Inappropriate motorcycles being raced across the castle lawns and down the castle driveway, with fire eaters, world renowned wall of death show, art exhibition, live music, fire works, moto polo and 1500 motorcycles on a scramble around the grounds each morning. Harry yet again spending a weekend mainly on the back wheel of one of our Beta enduro bikes, all in the name of his role as Marshal of course.
