ROADBOOK READER NOT REQUIRED! JUST A SMART PHONE OR TABLET w/GPS CAPABILITIES!Mock Roadbook Rally by Zacker Adventures...THIS IS NOT A RACE!
We are excited to host our 5th Mock Roadbook Rally. Each one has grown in popularity and we have listened to your feedback. This year we are doing 2-days of 280km-350km of navigational challenges per day. You will have to participate on both days to be eligible for prizes and awards. We have teamed up with Terra Pirata, who has developed a state of the art customizable digital roadbook navigation app to track and score your routes. This will track the participants' Waypoints, Speed Zones, Penalties, and Time. Zacker Adventures will supply Camping for 3 nights, Breakfasts on 3 mornings, Dinner on 2 evenings, and a Shit Ton of Fun!
We will have awards for 1st, 2nd, & 3rd places for both ADV and DS routes. Each rider will have to use the Terra Pirata App for Rider Tracking, Waypoint, and Speed Zone verification. The App is FREE for you to use during the event.
Penmerryl Farm will be the central bivouac for this event. Penmerryl Farm has full amenities (private showers and toilets) for the campers, but if you prefer a Lodge Room, contact Penmerryl Farm directly.
This year we will not be holding a "Roadbook Navigation Class". We recommend you watch these 4 YouTube videos to learn how to read a roadbook, or polish up your roadbook reading skills. Part 1 - Introduction to Roadbook Navigation , Part 2 - The Anatomy of a Roadbook , Part 3 - Signs & Symbols , Part 4 - Roadbook Navigation Gear
