Honda Quest True Adventure announces 40 semi-finalists

Deciding factors 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 a bootcamp from 4-6 August 2017. 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 a willingness to embrace adventure. 

24 hours after the conclusion of the bootcamp the organisers will announce the 20 finalists who will take part in Quest itself, which will consist of 12 days and 2500km of adventure riding in the northern parts of Namibia. 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 with which they competed.
