Registration

The OCR is a personal test of adventure and requires a large degree of self planning, independence and contingency. Accidents can and do happen, with recovery of rider and motorcycle expensive and moderately difficult.
This registration is non-binding and registrant responsible for making their own travel arrangements.
This rally is in a remote part of Australia with limited support of any kind. Intending riders and motorcycle need to be well prepared, allow for contingencies and be flexible to evolving conditions. Having plenty of cash will also help with accomodation a mix of 5n star bush camping or Pubs.
Local intel available from:
- Mt Dare Hotel, Witijira South Australia
- The Pink Roadhouse, Oodnadatta South Australia
Recovery of people and motorcycles is expensive from the remote areas of Australia. Otherwise plan on a reat ride.
