ADVENTURE

Turkana Gear has been developed over time by real Adv Riders in the toughest of circumstances. It’s the real deal. That’s why it comes with a Lifetime guarantee. Are you the real deal? We have a challenge for you!

The Turkana Challenge (Western Cape) is the first in a series of challenges.

Riders are given 5 destinations. These must be visited and photographed with your bike and event sticker, before 31 January 2024. Finishers stand a chance to win some Turkana Gear, worthy of a rider that rides.

The 5 destinations can be visited in 5 different rides, or one single big adventure ride. The only rule is that it must be photographed and in the given timeframe.
