Adventure Challenge

- 

The 2016 Touratech Adventure Challenge had a curious effect on participants and onlookers. When asked, “How was it?” some would giggle and have trouble explaining the things they’d seen while others’ eyes would glaze over as they stared off into the distance, clearly enraptured with very intense and pleasant memories.

We ran the story in issue #15, but we hadn’t been there ourselves and there was clearly something about the experience that was having an impact on people who were. The second running of the Challenge was on the calendar and Adventure Rider Magazine decided it was high time we had a look.

We’re always after an opportunity to ride in the Victorian mountain region, and Bright is one of our favourite places to go, so we loaded up the bikes and crossed the Murray.

Basically

 The concept of the Touratech Adventure Challenge is pretty much covered in the name: it’s a challenge for adventure riders using the skills they need to successfully enjoy their sport.
