The program is aimed to focus on training on and off the bike, nutrition, as well as building the correct mindset, which are all necessary for a strong foundation in competitive rally sport.
Ashish had this to say on the occasion of the first DirtFit session, “By bringing these three offerings under OPR, we are able to close the gap that we have seen for motorcyclists who want to explore not just casual off-roading but also rallying in India as well as internationally. We want to bring together all my experience and use it to make the process simple and seamless for novices and serious off-roaders aiming to get into the riveting world of rallying.”
