Who we are
Desert warriors started as a support team in preparation for the 2021 edition. This was after the participation in the 2020 edition. In that edition Alexander and Tony broke down with their Toyota Landcruiser, and didn’t get the support needed to finish the rally. Alexander was determined that this could be done better, so Desert Warriors was born.
The 2021 edition was postponed because of Covid, and unfortunatly the 2022 edition too. But in 2023 there was finaly some action again. This edition Desert Warriors supported 1 SSV and 5 bikes. 3 bikes and the SSV made it to the finish. 2 bikes unfortunatly had to drop out because of medical issues.
2024 will be the next edition, with now 2 support vehicles with trailers this edition will be even bigger. There is space for 1 or 2 SSV’s and 13 bikes.
In the mean time we looked for other adventures. The Illyria was one of the better options. So we joined the spring edition of 2022. A very nice organized event. Beautiful staged through the old forests of eastern europe. In the evenings comfortable hotels.
Since this is a non-timed non-competitive event this is very suitable for beginners as well. Most routes have certain cut-outs if you are tired and want to continue over the roads. But still with enough off-road to even challenge the more experienced rider. An event for all.
