KTM has announced the twelve riders who will be given a fully supported KTM 790 ADVENTURE R in order to compete in a unique event within the 2019 Merzouga Rally – The KTM Ultimate Race.

Following special qualification events held within the six KTM ADVENTURE RALLIES across the world in 2018 and 2019, participants had to prove excellent machine control, navigational skill and competent mechanical ability across multiple days. The top two positions from each event have now been decided and are READY TO RACE. Each rider gets to compete in an exclusive class at the Dakar series race in Morocco with a fully supported ride that includes flights, accommodation, meals, entry fees, as well as a full race service.

KTM is now proud to announce the hardest and most fearless 12 riders of the KTM ADVENTURE community from around the world who have qualified for this epic final battle, which takes place from March 31 to April 5, 2019.



EUROPE: Sebastian Blum (Germany) & Stefano Sassaro (Italy)
USA: Jordan Huibregtse & Scott Myers
CANADA: Radek Burkat & Vasile Scurtu
AUSTRALIA: Robert Nowak & Steve Robertson
NEW ZEALAND: Elliot Kent & Kevin Archer
SOUTH AFRICA: Christiaan Odendaal & Greg Hodgskin

The Ultimate Race is a special class at the Merzouga Rally, very similar to the main event and partly ridden on the same routes. Like the pros, the participants will face a marathon stage where no outside assistance is allowed. The participants are entirely left to themselves, which means taking care of the maintenance of their bikes and staying the night in a bivouac.

Each competitor will have access to a specially prepared KTM 790 ADVENTURE R, which will be equipped with a host of KTM PowerParts, such as the Akrapovič Slip-on line silencer, the Ergo seat and protection parts which are essential for riding under these conditions, along with a roadbook to help navigate through the desert. The Ultimate Race participants will be treated like KTM Factory riders, supported on site with a truck and a team of mechanics to help out with parts and tools or with fixing the bike after a tough race day.



Along with this unique and exclusive prize, competitors will be given a fantastic opportunity to be coached by some of the world’s finest and fastest offroad riders. Chris Birch, Marc Coma and Quinn Cody will each take on four participants and under their close guidance and tutelage will actively support these riders in every aspect of how to manage this challenge.

As for the prize? The winner of the Ultimate Race can keep their KTM 790 ADVENTURE R race bike along with receiving an all-expenses paid package for two people to see the 2020 Dakar Rally.

The 4th Annual Stolen Pig Rally will be held April 25-28, 2019 in McCarr Ky. The rally is for street-legal adventure enduro bikes. The SPR19 will be held at The McCoy Pig Farm semi-primitive campground, located in McCarr, KY just two miles from Matewan WV. The event is hosted by Donald and Kathy McCoy.

A highlight of this year's SPR19 will be the women's intermediate rides. The McCoy’s have invited special guest, Erin Solano Cox, founder of Women's Off Road Moto (WOMO). Erin will be riding daily and guiding women on great intermediate routes thru the Real McCoy Trails.



WOMO is committed to dirt, adventure, and dual sport motorcycles, while supporting each other and serving their community. Their goal is to be a safe place for women to learn to ride, ask questions, hear about events, riding opportunities and other info about the riding community. Erin is a self-proclaimed moto enthusiast who began riding nine years ago, and though her WOMOgroup is only a little over a year old, they have already been represented at a variety of riding trips and rallies.

Erin is honored and humbled to be leading several rides during the Stolen Pig Rally with fellow WOMOleader, Kerri Ankenman, as sweeper. We encourage women who are looking for a great place to ride and meet new friends in the moto community to join us at the Stolen Pig Rally. We assure you will have a great time.



For all size dual-sport and adventure bikes, there are endless miles of riding on The Real McCoy Trails. For street riding there's not a single quarter mile section of straight road in the region and plenty to see and do. Intermediate, medium & advanced routes are available from 60 -150 miles including The Feud Loop for history buffs. There will be rides available that include some awesome backwoods, single-lane, twisty blacktop as well as some dirt and gravel roads and all located within 10 - 25 miles of Base Camp at McCarr, KY.

Imagine riding and exploring within the 2nd lowest valley within the Appalachian Mountains and within the borders of 3 states loaded with awesome mountains, valleys and streams. The views are spectacular. Discover for yourself the blue grass of Kentucky, why West Virginia is Wild and Wonderful, Virginia is for Lovers and why the Hatfields and McCoys feuded over this land.
