Tips
Here are some recommendations to bear in mind to ensure a rewarding experience throughout the event.
We will follow a similar format, where the main difference will be the increase by one stage, from three stages to four.
The routes and itinerary are secret and will run along secondary roads. The route is 100% ON ROAD.
As on previous occasions, we will insert entirely voluntary sections for the more adventurous, to boost your GS spirit and where you can get your bikes dusty.
What is a day like in puntApunta 2023?
In the morning, after your arrival at the parc fermé at the time assigned according to your number, you must have your passport stamped and then go to the starting arch. It is important to abide by the starting times to avoid crowds at the arch and too many bikes on the route. Starting times will be allocated at the time of registration and cannot be changed.
During the tour, you will come across checkpoints where you must stop for the corresponding stamp before continuing your route. You can have lunch with the other participants at the checkpoints reached around noon.
On arrival, once you have parked correctly in the parc fermé, you must go to the Staff tent for the end of stage stamp. Once you have done this, you can enjoy a well-deserved rest in the catering area and then head for your overnight locations to charge your batteries and start the next stage fully refreshed.
Every afternoon, once passport control has closed, the compulsory briefing will be held in the parc fermé with the details of the next stage. As a novelty this year, you will be able to attend in person or watch the video that you will find here.
to bear in mind
Remember that this is an adventure trip and a motorcycle suit is a must. However, leisure wear is equally as important as the rider’s equipment. You should also bring a fleece or sweatshirt for the cold, as the temperature drops at night.
The weather can be extremely changeable in the middle of spring. We therefore recommend checking all items in your luggage so that you can enjoy your adventure in comfort.
These must be in good condition. Motorcycles that do NOT have tyres in optimal condition will NOT be able to take part.
