Adventure bike event organisers Rallymoto have released their calendar for 2022, although you’ll have to be quick to bag a spot on their popular '500' series.
Rallymoto specialise in navigational challenges, where entrants use a Dakar-style paper 'roadbook' to get around a set course. Riders are judged on the accuracy of their navigation rather than overall time (or speed).

The 500s take in a mixture of on and off-road routes, with riders completing 500km over two days.
The Kielder 500, which takes place in Northumberland, is set for March 26-27, with tickets already on sale for £260.

A new road-based navigation event is coming this summer that will see road riders get a taste of the Dakar spirit without having to venture off the black stuff. The Cannonball Challenge is being organised by Rallymoto, who have had huge success organising similar events for adventure bike riders over the last few years. We see lots of guys who want to have a go at rally-style navigation but without the huge investment, says Robert Hughes, founder of Rallymoto. We also get a lot of guys who love the navigation aspect but don’t want to take their newer machines off-road, so we’ve created the road orientated Cannonball Challenge.
