Giant Loop Luggage

Very pleased to announce that Giant Loop have come on board and will be supporting the Heavy Enduro Racing team. With trips to Morocco and an epic overland adventure to Mongolia taking place in 2021 its great to have Giant Loop looking after our luggage needs.

Since 2008, Giant Loop has evolved from two adventure motorcycle riders with a single saddlebag available only online, into one of the world’s most innovative motorcycle soft luggage and gear makers. Their product line now includes adventure proof packing systems and gear for motorcycles, snowmobiles and snow bikes, and outdoor extremes.

Riders worldwide energize and inspire Giant Loop to continually improve, and each design is prototyped and tested in some of the most demanding off-road conditions.

The team will be using both the new GL Pannier mount with Mototrekk Pannier and the Coyote Saddlebag systems which our riders are already very familiar and happy with. 

As well as these main luggage systems we will be using Pronghorn Straps, Rogue Dry Bags, Tank Bags and Gas Bags.

Sahari Rally

Sahari Rally didn't quite got to plan with a decent crash on day one breaking ribs, finger and sternum. Although its never pleasant to have to back off I was happy to finish the race and grab a 2nd in the open class.

Algeria was both stunning and deadly with areas of very soft terrain and vast areas of dunes. The locals were extremely welcoming and we came away with many new friends. If the Dakar Rally is to return to these parts it will be an awesome challenge.

Exciting times ahead with Heavy Enduro and Aurora Rally. A new rally team, some new sponsors, a new shoulder, new 9x0 rally bikes, new destinations, some new riders and great friends.Lots to shout about and we can’t wait to share in full. Stay tuned

Corky and the chain roller that inflicted the initial damage that eventually ended his Africa Race in just two days. Not what was planned but as everyone knows - that's racing. Good news is that Corky now has the backing of a top rally parts manufacturer whom have been following from the start, and have total confidence in his abilities to get the LC8 to the finish line. They will be kindly rebuilding and improving the LC8 rally build with a new custom built rear end, oil tank, and the next version of their nav tower. 

Corky has had some great words of encouragement and support from other people in the industry, followers, friends, fellow riders, and the media so it's straight back into the training and lets hope some sponsorship comes Corkys way and he can fulfil the dream of reaching Dakar on a twin cylinder.
