This event apparently started about 8 years ago in October,
when the
Gascoyne River had water in it. It was a water event - boats, kayaks
etc..
The following year they went to run it again but there was no water, so
they raced vehicles down the river bed instead. It has now turned into
a serious event for motor bikes, quads, buggies, and 4WD's. It runs
from
Gascoyne Junction to Carnarvon. (See
their website).
Day 1 is a prologue to sort out the starting order, day 2 they race
round tracks near Gascoyne Junction, day 3 they race down the river bed
to Carnarvon.
These are a few photos of this years event.
