Lesotho has become the unlikely destination of one of the world’s most extreme motocross races around. It is also one of the most spectacular as it features stunning scenery and even occasional run ins with local wildlife.
The race takes place over 450km and three days and tests even the best riders to the limit. Not only is the course extremely challenging but the conditions take their toll. Despite taking place during Lesotho’s rainy season the heat is sweltering and dehydration and exhaustion often accounts for many riders. Often less than 50% of the field completes the race.
