Days of Dust – Adventure Rally 2023

LAS SIERRAS

October 31 to November 5, 2023. ANDALUSIA – SPAIN

The Days of Dust – Adventure rally is on again! The third edition of our adventure rally leads us into the LAS SIERRAS of Andalusia. Pre-Registration is on! Stay tuned…

What’s happening during the event?

Every day is a new adventure: in small groups you navigate through the Andalusian back country, using only a GPS device and the tracks provided by the EPA Team at the beginning of the event. You can expect dusty days as 70 percent of the route is off-road.

During two dust challenges per day you will have to proof your motorcycle riding and problem solving skills.

Every day you have the choice between an easy and a hard section. Extra points are given to the riders choosing the hard sections.

Who wins the Days of Dust 2023?

The rider who performs best in navigation, the dust challenges and the finals on day 4 in the Enduropark Andalusia wins the Days of Dust 2023.

THE RIDE

Even though you are riding in small teams during Days of Dust (DOD), the scoring is done individually per rider.

You can choose your riding buddies at the welcome day and change your team on a daily basis.

When registering, you are free to join for fun or for competition. The DOD is of course all about Adventure Bike riding, but a big part is making friends and connecting with other off-road riders. It is all about communication, enjoying Andalusia with our chosen event locations and last but not least about finding out who are the best adventure riders of the event. Nevertheless it is about enjoying the spirit of the adventure rider community.
