  • Andrew, Dave, Brian and I competed in the longest point to point off-road race in the United States, Vegas to Reno 2023. We raced a 2018 KTM 500 EXC over 500 miles through the Nevada Desert. Competing in the Motorcycle Open Amateur Class we finished in 3rd place (out of 10 teams). We finished 106 in the overall. 233 teams started the race and only 163 finished. The entire experience was a lot of fun and I hope you enjoy watching our adventure.

    Congrats. Pretty cool accomplishment and looked like a lot of fun. Maybe a Back in the Garage video showing the build of the bike? Thanks.

      Appreciate it. Bike is currently in the garage in full race trim still so I can make a video like that before I return it to street legal trim.

      The goal was to finish but when we saw a podium was within reach, had to push for it.

    Is there anyway to do this race, as an ironman, without a pitcrew? like is there any communal fuel like in Baja? loved this whole thing, and it's got me super motivated to find a way to do it

    • @2WR
      @2WR  Місяць тому +1

      You can hire Baja Pits to handle your pit stops. Not sure what the cost is
