What is a roadbook rally?
Updated
A roadbook rally is a type of rally where participants navigate a predetermined route using a roadbook, which
is a set of detailed instructions and visual diagrams. The roadbook provides information about the course,
including directions, distances, and notable landmarks, but does not use GPS to navigate. Riders must
interpret the roadbook to find their way through various terrain and checkpoints. This type of rally
emphasizes navigation skills, endurance, and the ability to adapt to changing conditions. It is commonly seen
in events like the Dakar Rally, where the challenge is as much about navigating correctly as it is about speed
and riding ability.
