What is DARE!
Same stages. No stopwatch.
DARE! is for skilled off-road riders with little or no rally experience. You ride alongside pro rally riders and teams, share the bivouac with experienced rally addicts and collect your first kilometres of the “Beauty, but a Beast” Dinaric stages.
DARE! tracks are regular Dinaric Rally tracks, carefully adapted to fit big ADV bikes and less experienced riders. You can push yourself in a safe and controlled environment.
What to expect
Everything Rally riders get
Same bivouac, same briefing, same stages as experienced rally riders and teams.
Rally stages adapted and shortened for heavier bikes and newer riders.
No GPS navigation. The best and safest way to learn the roadbook is on the go.
Total time on every stage is limited. Finish within it while following the track.
Tracking and safety devices, medics, rescue teams and assistance, as in Rally.
DARE! riders are tracked throughout the rally and can be disqualified for breaking the rules.
The rules
Five rules. That’s it.
Briefing, roadbook distribution and start lists are shared with Rally. DARE! riders skip the sections not included in their route, get extra information for their stages and start 15 minutes after the last Rally rider.
DARE! has no stopwatch, no ranking and no trophies. You finish or you don’t.
All rules and regulations apply to DARE! riders too.
Follow the designated route in your roadbook.
Collect at least 70% of waypoints within the stage time limit.
Tracking and safety devices are mandatory for every DARE! rider.

Before you dare
Riding
Can I ride a big ADV bike?
Yes. DARE! tracks are adapted for big adventure bikes.
Do I need rally experience?
No. You need solid off-road skills. Rally experience is what DARE! gives you.
Navigation
Can I use GPS navigation?
No. DARE! is roadbook only. Tracking devices are for safety, not navigation.
What if I get lost?
Contact the organiser, but most likely we will call you first: we track every rider and will see that you are off route. Go back to the track only if you are 100% sure you are not riding against the direction of the official route. Even then, keep to the edge of the track and ride with extreme care: you may still be on the route, or another rider may be lost too and come round the next corner.
Results
Is there a ranking?
No. DARE! has no ranking and no trophies. Your goal is to finish every stage within the time limit: you finish or you don’t.
What if I miss a stage start?
Nothing. On DARE! what counts is collecting enough waypoints on each stage you ride.
