This entry is part 178 of 320 in the series Adventure Rider Issue #1

How would you like to win an all-expenses paid trip to Morocco and a fully-supported ride on the all-new KTM 790 Adventure R to race an exclusive class at the Merzouga Rally 2019

The 12 lucky riders win the opportunity to race against each other in an exclusive class at the Dakar Series race in Morocco. They receive an all-expenses paid trip, including flights, accommodation, entry fees and a full race service on a factory-prepped KTM 790 Adventure R that has been built from Dakar DNA. Riders will also be coached by some of the world’s best adventure ambassadors and treated like Factory supported riders during the trip.

And to top off an already epic experience, the winner of the KTM ULTIMATE RACE at Merzouga will receive an incredible prize: a 790 Adventure R to keep and 2 x VIP tickets to the Dakar Rally. Having just won the 18th consecutive Dakar this morning, this prize is a truly READY TO RACE experience.

So how do you qualify for this once-in-a-lifetime experience?

As the Merzouga Rally 2019 takes place immediately after the 2019 KTM Australia Adventure Rallye (March 30^th – April 5^th 2019), there will be a stand-alone qualification event to find the two Australian riders.

And who better to host this event than the crew that brings you some of the most unique and entertaining racing in Australia: TRANSMOTO.

Held in conjunction with the 2019 Transmoto 12-Hour at Batemans Bay, the KTM ULTIMATE RACE Qualifications: Australia will be run on Friday March 1^st and Saturday March 2^nd before the 12-Hour – meaning there will be plenty of spectators around to heckle riders throughout the challenges.

Certain requirements must be met for those wishing to participate in the Qualifications, as set across all countries. Riders must compete on a V-Twin KTM Adventure bike (950, 990, 1090, 1190, 1290) that they own: the bike cannot be borrowed or rented. They must hold a current MA racing license. One-Day licenses can be purchased on the day, however the two qualification winners must have a valid MA license to participate in Merzouga. Riders can’t have raced professionally or participated in the Dakar Rally in the past 10 years. And they must have a GPS unit capable of following GPX tracks and an Instagram account.

The Qualification challenges will be tough, therefore we advise only experienced adventure riders to participate! The terrain of Morocco will be a serious task, therefore we are not holding back during this Qualification.

Details on the Qualification challenges and how to enter can be found online at www.ridektm.com.au/ktm-ultimate-race

So – do you want to be part of the first ever KTM ULTIMATE RACE?

Entries for the Qualification are very limited and open on Friday, January 25^th at 9.00am AEDT at www.ridektm.com.au/ktm-ultimate-race
