The DRR Review

The Transanatolia Rally, a seven day riding epic taking in the very best riding, landscapes and scenery that Turkey has to offer. Typically featuring fast days, high mountain passes, an amazing rally atmosphere and run by one of the most enthusiastic organisations in the industry. We're very much looking forward to heading back to this great event in 2025.

ABOUT THE EVENT

For 2025, we’re excited to announce the return of the Transanatolia Rally to our calendar. This is a seven day, moving event featuring all the adventures and magic of a true rally-raid, boosted all the more by being based in Turkey.

Desert Rose Racing have historically supported the event, but with it being missing from our schedule for several years now, due to popular demand we’ll be heading back to Turkey in 2025 for some epic racing across one of the most beautiful and interesting countries in the world. Expect some incredible scenery, high mountain passes, long and varied stages all backed up by a great organisation and of course the Desert Rose team.

If joining us on the Transanatolia sounds like something you’d be interested in, get in touch with the team for more information.
