Honda Quest announces semi-finalists!

It's almost time for Quest Boot Camp to kick off. After having to meticulously work through more than 800 entries, the organisers of Honda Quest True Adventure have narrowed it down to just 40 semi-finalists.

They considered a number of factors. These included applicants' adventure riding track record, their suitability for becoming brand ambassadors for Honda Africa Twin and, finally, an indication of whether they possess the "X-factor" - something that makes them stand out from the rest.

These 40 semi-finalists will be put through an intense selection process at Boot Camp on 4, 5 and 6 August. The organisers will be looking for a combination of skills - from riding ability and a positive attitude, to an ability to function in a team and, perhaps most importantly, a willingness to embrace proper adventure. And believe us, they're going to need it.

Twenty-four hours after the conclusion of Boot Camp the organisers will announce the 20 finalists who will take part in Quest itself, which will consist of 12 days and 2500km of life altering adventure riding in the northern parts of Namibia, barely a month later. The participants will compete in ten teams of two riders each and the winning team will each go home with the Honda CRF100L Africa Twin that they competed on!

To find out who the semi-finalists are, go to www.quest-trueadventure.com

The wait is finally over. You can now enter for Honda Quest True Adventure 2017 - the ultimate adventure motorcycle competition on the ultimate adventure motorcycle, the Honda CRF1000 L Africa Twin.

Simply go to your nearest Honda dealer where you can complete your entry form. Alternatively, you can enter online at www.quest-trueadventure.com.

Do you have what it takes?

We are looking for the true adventure riders of Southern Africa. Men and women who don't shy away from physical and mental challenges, who are curious, can take the initiative and function as part of a team.

It's not a race or a rally. Quest is first and foremost an extremely tough adventure expedition. However, it will include elements of competition where participating teams will be tested on their adventure motorcycle riding and mechanical skills, as well as their endurance, courage and resilience against what Africa has to offer.

The main aim of Quest will be to test human endurance and adaptability, combined with the continent-crossing abilities of the Honda CRF1000 L Africa Twin.

What happens next?

After receipt of the entries, Honda Motorcycles South Africa and Specialised Adventures, organisers of Quest True Adventure, will select 40 applicants to attend Quest Boot Camp at the beginning of August. Here the instructors will select the final 20 participants, who will then be flown to Namibia at the beginning of September where they will undertake a challenging 12-day, 2500km off-road expedition in the northern parts of Namibia.

Costs and logistics

Participation in Quest is free. However, if you are selected for Boot Camp you will need to travel to Cape Town. If you are selected as one of the 20 finalists for Quest, we will provide transport there and back. Bear in mind that you'll need to put in leave: Boot Camp will require two days of leave. Quest itself will require 14 days of leave.

The prize

Apart from bragging rights the winning team will each win the Honda Africa Twin CRF1000 L that they used during the Quest event.
