Malpensa – Porto Torres (Sardinia) 28th September – 2nd October
The spirit of the event
The 80’s myth returns. The first Rally Raid held outside the African continent. Created and developed by the rally champion Renato Zocchi, the Rally of Sardinia became the official qualifying test for vehicles entering the World Rally Raid Championships, such as the Paris Dakar and The Pharaon Rally.
In the 2019, Adventure Riding in Collaboration with Deus Ex Machina re-proposed A new version, following the Deus Swank Rally formula, a gentleman race in which riders take the time by themselves.
It starts with the technical check and prologue at the Motocross Track of Malpensa (Gallarate), starting point for the first stage which leads to Genova. After boarding on the ferry taking to Porto Torres, there are 3 more stops awaiting, from 200 to 300 km each on a completely new track.
Two are the options for participation. The NON-COMPETITIVE “Swank Experience”, open to any kind of off-road bike, and on the “Swank Rally”, COMPETITIVE and divided in two categories: R1 open to vintage enduro bikes registered before 31/12/1999 and R2 open to all the enduro bikes registered after 31/12/1999.
For both Swank Experience and Swank Rally categories the motorcycles must be road legal and is forbidden carrying passengers.
Stages consist in transfers and Special Stages where participants have to take timing by themselves.
The organization will provide medical assistance, rescue vehicles and luggage transport service. It won’t miss the Deus spirit and attention to details.
Rankings & Trophys:: The Swank Rally di Sardegna was created with the aim of giving all the enthusiasts the chance of experiencing a rally experience, without ranking stress; However, a little competition will make it more fun and spice it up a bit. In addition to the prize for the three best positions of the categories R1 and R2, the following prizes will be given:
Swank Prize: a special prize for anyone who’ll stand out during the event for any reason.
Precision Trophy: As it is not all about speed, there is a reward for the riders who can distinguish themselves for their navigation skills as well. The Precision Throphy, in partnership with Garmin Italia, will reward three pilots from the “experience” category who will have covered the number of kilometers closest to that indicated by the organization.
Team Trophy: For the first time ever, participants can take part of the event as a Team. There will be a special dedicated ranking, but team members will also enter the ranking individually.
Teams can include 3 or 4 members, and they all have to be registered in the competitive categories R1 or R2.
The ranking will be calculated from the final scoreboard by summing up the times of the first 3 members of each team.
