Service Teams

Service team or no service team? That’s the question! Here are the 3 options:

Option 1: box riders with no assistance
Option 2: bring your own assistance
Option 3: enjoy the services of a professional assistance team

Option 1

Box riders (“Malle Moto”): You are solely responsible for your motorbike/quad and its daily maintenance & repairs. You work in the “parc fermé”, a closed area, to avoid unauthorised assistance from other people/mecanics.

NEW! The organisation will spare no effort to ensure our box riders can enjoy a great event. As a Malle Moto-rider you are entitled to 2 "Pierre Henri" cases (80 x 45 x 35 cm each), 2 extra wheels and 1 sports bag with extra luggage. We will provide a special truck with a mobile workshop to transport your equipment from bivouac to bivouac. Those who participate in the crazy motorcycle category will pay a contribution of 650€.

The extra cost of course includes a few services. For every Malle Moto-rider we provide a place to work on the bike. You get a work mat under a tent so you are protected from the sun. We also provide light, (compressed) air and electricity. 2 dedicated Malle Moto crew assistants will make sure your workstation with your work mat and boxes is ready when you arrive at the bivouac after the stage so you can start working on your bike right away. We also provide a tent to sleep in. So you don't have to bring that with you.

Malle Moto riders are allowed to take:

2 boxes of 80 x 45 x 35 cm (arranged by yourself) for your tools and spare parts
1 sports bag extra luggage
2 tyres or wheels

What is not included in the entry fee:

Transport of your motorbike to Morocco and back
We offer the participants in the Malle Moto category the option of having the motorcycle transported by the organization to Agadir (start of the rally) and from the finish back to Europe. On the axis Belgium-Sète (FR), we foresee a number of pick-up points where you can have your motorcycle picked up and dropped off. We charge 600€ there and back (pick-up, carnet ATA, transport insurance, ferry, etc.). You then fly in comfort to Morocco where your motorcycle will be waiting for you in bivouac 0.

Option 2

You bring your own service team: a car, minibus, a camper or a truck/lorry and 1 or more mechanics.

Every service-vehicle must be registered, whether it’s a truck or camper from Europe or a locally rented car on Moroccon license plates.

Option 3

For those who want service, but do not wish to register a service team/vehicle just for themselves, they can “buy” assistance with one of the numerous professional and semi-professional service teams. The price of service may vary a lot between different teams, depending on the level of service they offer, the distance they have to cover to get to Morocco, the number of mechanics they bring, the extra services they offer (massage, catering, tent-service), etc. Best is to compare!
