Adventure Days 2022 (April 21st to 24th)
RawHyde is pleased to announce the rescheduled dates for Adventure Days at ZAKAR which is our newest facility in the center of the amazing Mojave Desert.
As many of you know we had to postpone Adventure Days from its original date in October of ’21 due to fire risks, but now that’s all past us now and we’re pleased to say that it all kicks off on April 21st of 2022.
As well as a new date we also have a new name and a new partner in the production of this years event! We’re changing the name to the “Get On ADV Festival” and we’ve partnered with Revzilla to make it all happen. Here’s the best part… this event will still be EVERYTHING that was good about Adventure Days but Revzilla and their relationships will drastically increase the number of vendors that you’ll be able to visit with as well as LOTS of new clinics and presentations etc.
We will be also be working with the folks from Rever to provide tracks for some really great local rides that vary from easy routes to local Ghost Towns… to challenging single tracks that slice through the Mojave Desert!
Through our clinics and classes you’ll have the chance to learn anything and everything you’ve ever wanted to know about Adventure Riding plus you’ll have the opportunity to take some great rides, enjoy the camaraderie of shared “Adventures” and generally have a whole bunch of fun with great people over a long weekend. The event is part Rally, Part Expo, and part Trade show!
Many companies from the Adventure Market will be present showing off their latest products (See vendor list below) and there will be a strong focus on education and knowledge, we'll be hosting GPS seminars, suspension and bike set up classes, tire changing & bead breaking clinics, off road riding classes, packing clinics, etc. Our friends from Klim will host a detailed class on how today's high tech riding suits repel water, protect you… and keep you comfortable at the same time. There will be clinics or classes on every imaginable topic. The list of classes and clinics will be growing continuously.
As mentioned above there will also be daily rides – sponsored byRever with tracks available through the Rever app! These rides will all be self guided so we remain in compliance with BLM mandates.
But wait… there's more! On top of all the classes, clinics and fun; all your food, beverages, camp sites, RV parking, etc. are all included too… as well as a *souvenir shirt and a “swag bag” provided by Revzilla.
So – the bottom line is this: If you're serious (or curious) about Adventure Riding; this is an excellent opportunity to both experience and learn about everything related to our world. Three days of fun, education, and excitement at our Zakar facility in the Mojave Desert.
Below is a sampling of the classes that will be available at the event.
Adventure Days Classes and Clinics:
Classes
Using a small handheld tool called the GS 911. This slick device pairs with a mobile phone, tablet or laptop and can tell you nearly anything and everything that’s wrong with your motorcycle. Also allows you to reset “faults” and get back on the road in many cases. (30 minute class)
Many folks have a GPS... few learn to use it properly. This class teaches the top 4 critical uses of a GPS. Learn the difference between routes and tracks, learn how to tell people where you are using the format of degrees, minutes and seconds. Learn how to “track back” or use your computer to create a route to find a friend who has had trouble in the back country. Learn how to create waypoints for rescue and a whole lot more. (1 hour)
The basics of water proof adventure gear and armor to keep you safe and comfortable. These items are far more technical than most people believe.
There’s no cell phone service in the back country. Learn about the affordable satellite technologies that enable you to communicate either by voice or text from anywhere on the planet. Also learn about portable satellite internet service in the back country.
Lots of folks aren’t really sure what they need for back country trips. We’ll show you what to bring and how to pack sensibly for one day to a week or more.
Riding Clinics
This 1.5 hour session is half lecture and half practical. The “on bike” portion of the class will focus on Standing while riding, plus basic turning and braking. (Taught by RawHyde Trainers)
Street riders are taught that “skidding is bad” on pavement, plus todays ABS systems have removed the potential of skidding from the average riders thought process. BUT skidding is very much a part of off road riding. This basic skidding class will allow the rider to “get a feel for the skid” in a safe and controlled manner. It’s also a lot of fun to learn to skid a big bike ! 1 hour – taught by RawHyde Trainers.
