About the trip
This is an off-road motorcycle workshop of a medium difficulty, but the program can be adapted to more advanced groups. The idea for this event was to combine technique training and guided trail rides. The off-road training led by 11 time Dakar Rally participant Simon Marčič will include more advanced riding elements specified below. The trail ride will be guided by Simon through diverse terrain, so the participants can apply new skills in practice, while enjoying breathtaking views of beautiful Croatia.
