The Great Malle Rally 2023

Pre-Rally cocktail in London at Malle HQ, early August (optional).

STAGE 0 – PRE-RALLY RIDERS REGISTRATION
Riders check-in at The Rally Camp near The Lizard, the most Southernly point on mainland Britain. With time for a good Pre-Rally party.

STAGE 1 – THE RALLY START LINE – CORNWALL
The Rally flag drops at The Lizard point in Cornwall. The rally proceeds through the wilds of Cornwall/Devon in Stage 1.

STAGE 2 – WALES & SNOWDONIA
Day 2 starts on the Cheddar Gorge and heads North through the beautiful mountains and valleys of the Snowdonia National Park and completes at the rally camp in Northern Wales.

STAGE 3 – THE YORKSHIRE DALES
On day 3 the rally proceeds from Wales into England and across the unique Yorkshire Dales.

STAGE 4 – THE LAKE DISTRICT
On day 4 the rally proceeds across the 2 highest passes in the Lake District and completes on the coast in the lowlands of Scotland.

STAGE 5 – THE SCOTTISH LOWLANDS
Day 5 starts in Loch Lomond & The Trossachs. The rally route continues through the Highlands and completes on a gorgeous loch on the beautiful West coast of Scotland.

STAGE 6 – THE SCOTTISH HIGHLANDS
Day 6 continues the adventure along the dramatic West coast of Scotland, to the Rally Finish Line at the Castle of Mey, perched at the very Northern tip of Scotland and Great Britain.

POST RALLY
After a hearty Scottish breakfast, riders take a relaxed ride in one group down the East Coast of Scotland to our rally trucks in Inverness. Board a flight/train back to London on Sunday afternoon, (flights not included in the rally package and needs to be booked by the rider). Motorcycles arriving back in London on Tuesday, post-rally.

There’s a reason motorcycle gangs are so popular, riding with a group/team of good mates is one of the best things you can ever do. Side by side, riding the entire length of this small island.

Some riders enter the rally as a team, but 50% enter as a solo ‘LoneWolf’ rider and we help build the teams, based on similar machinery, interests.. and hairstyles? Many great friendships have started in the rally teams and long may that continue.

With that said, The Great Malle Rally is a rally event where teams of 2+ riders will complete each stage starting and finishing as a team. The clock will start when all riders have crossed the start line and stops once the entire team has reached the checkpoint. Making sure no one’s left behind.

We aim to make the rally accessible to all riders and make it as simple as possible to join the adventure.
Please select the package that suits your needs below – 95% of riders select the ‘Deluxe Rally Package’.

WHICH MOTORCYCLE CAN I ENTER?
Any motorcycle considered custom, classic, cafe racer, scrambler, brat or chopper is most welcome! Which includes most motorcycles!

WHY IS THIS RALLY OPEN TO ONLY ‘INAPPROPRIATE’ MOTORCYCLES?
There are already thousands of events for race/dirt bikes, cruisers etc. It’s more of a Rally mindset than anything else.

I’M A LONE WOLF AND WANT TO JOIN A TEAM, CAN I?
Absolutely, drop us a mail and we’ll fix you up with some adventurous ‘like-biked’ team mates.

WHY’S IT SO CHEAP?
It’s true other 1000+ mile rallies cost many thousands of pounds to enter, we’ve really tried to keep this accessible to all riders.

WHY’S IT SO EXPENSIVE?
The Great Malle Rally is a highly complicated logistical event involving hundreds of people supporting the rally from start to finish. With specialised kit, great food, remote luxury camping, mechanics, vehicle delivery, permits, medics, insurance, custom production, chefs, staff and volunteers etc.

HOW TOUGH WILL THE RALLY BE?
The rally route is undoubtedly a very long distance and it won’t be easy by any stretch of the imagination. But, with the rally route we’ve planned it’s spectacular riding through amazing scenery and your team can ride at their own pace. Plan accordingly, get some long distance practice in and prep your bike well.

HOW MANY HOURS/MILES WILL WE BE RIDING EACH DAY?
Expect to be riding around 200-250 miles per day, which should about 6-8 hours of riding per stage, with breaks at each check point, the lunch break and we want all riders back in camp by 6pm for the riders dinner and the evening social/rally event.

I RIDE A SCOOTER, CAN I ENTER?
You’ll be most welcome and not alone, ideally it should be on the more classic/custom side – a 2016 Vespa probably won’t cut it.

CAN WE ENTER A COMPANY TEAM?
Absolutely, we are too! Contact us.

CAN WE FILM AND DOCUMENT THE RALLY?
Get involved!

CAN I JUST TURN UP AT THE START-LINE AND ENTER?
No, but you could join us for the Pre-Party in Cornwall or the after party at the Northern tip of Scotland.

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS ON ROUTE?
We’ll all get a little wet and in the case of stage 4 in the 2017 rally we got rather wet! Prepare for all weather – in late August most likely it will be gorgeous weather!
