The Girl On A Bike at Desert Rose

The Girl On A Bike, Vanessa Ruck will be joining up with Patsy and Harry to host a number of rider courses in early April. Based on our Stage 1 and Stage 2 core training content and taking place at one of our private venues in East Sussex we can tackle everything from the basics of body positioning and bike handling off road, through to hill ascents and descents, braking techniques, ruts, obstacles, off cambers and we may even move on to dropping in and out of streams and river crossings. The Desert Rose Riding Academy use our fleet of late model Beta enduro bikes and we have a full supply of off road riding gear for you to use, so once signed up all you have to do is turn up and ride. Places are limited, so sign up today
Vanessa and Desert Rose have some history. In July 2021 Vanessa took part in and got her finishers medal in the hard enduro madness that is Red Bull Romaniacs, with race assistance and logistics handled by Desert Rose Racing. September 2021 saw Vanessa join Patsy, Harry and Joe take part in the Qatar Desert Baja, a full on desert rallye, with road books, sand dunes and heat. It was hot, very hot and humid, just ask Harry how hot it was. Again rallye support and logistics was handled by Desert Rose Racing. Vanessa is certainly not done with desert rallies, with her sights firmly set on taking part in the Dakar, she has signed up for The Tunisia Desert Challenge in April this year with race support and logistics provided by Desert Rose Racing.

Desert Rose & Caofen Electric Dirt Bikes

A new partnership between Desert Rose Riding Academy and Caofen will provide an opportunity for riders to experience what electric off road motorcycles have to offer. Using both the Caofen F80 and Caofen FX riders will be able to put these bikes to the test for a morning or afternoon at one of our East Sussex off road training facilities. Noise pollution is a thing of the past with electric off road motorcycles. With these new models, the lightweight monocoque chassis is made from aircraft-grade Magnarium alloy, providing class leading rigidity increasing safety and enhancing the F80’s off road capability. The technology provides far greater battery stability, improving performance allowing you to ride faster for longer. The operating temperature range of the battery is extended from minus 40 Celsius to plus 60 Celsius and allows for faster more efficient charging.

The Morocco 1500

Morocco has always drawn adventurers and overlanders to its heart. For Desert Rose, it is a home from home, with Patsy first travelling across it over 25 years ago. Being part of the route of the famous Paris-Dakar rallye of the late 70s and early 80s it is surely on most motorcyclists’ bucket list. For 2024 we have something completely new and we believe quite unique. We have built an event which enables both off road riders and on road riders to experience Morocco at its very best, however you choose to travel through it. With 7 days riding, we will cover some 1500km, starting in the hustle and bustle of Marrakech and finishing in Fes, Morocco’s oldest city, having dropped down to Merzouga to see first-hand the majestic dunes and desert vistas. Staying in quality accommodation and having a night under the stars at a desert bivouac this is an event that will make memories to last a lifetime. All in the knowledge that you are riding with the full support of the experienced Desert Rose Team there to back you up.
