2022 HUSKY TREK: QLD COUNTRY!

3 years ago | Words: Andy Wigan | Photos: Husqvarna Motorcycles Australia

What do you get when you combine 55 Norden 901 and 701 Enduro adventure riders with 25 Husqvarna Motorcycles staff and 1800km of prime riding country in Queensland’s southeast? The third annual Husky Trek is what – the sole Husky-only adventure ride in the world!

Here’s Husqvarna’s PR about this year’s Trek, along with a video and pictorial snapshot of what looked like an epic five-day ride…

With weather causing chaos in the lead-up to the Trek, it was a welcome surprise to be greeted by sunshine and blue skies each morning of the event, which started and finished at the iconic Bunya Mountains.

Coming off last year’s Northern Explorer Husky Trek, which was held in the Northern NSW region, this year’s edition added an extra day and a new model, with the introduction to the Husqvarna Motorcycles adventure family of the Norden 901.

Riders were treated to a vast array of terrain, from flowing gravel roads to clay forest tracks, overgrown single track, tricky rocky creek crossings and even special-access private property.

Along with the outstanding route, riders were able to immerse themselves in the adventure experience with full support offered by the Husqvarna Motorcycles Australia crew – including luggage, technical and medical support, as well as lead riders clearing the track and sweep riders bringing up the rear to ensure all got to the nightly home base with a smile on their face.

The Husky Trek boasts a unique aspect of being the sole Husky-only adventure ride in the world, meaning riders experience the thrills of the trail and nightly atmosphere with like-minded adventurers, offering a rare and distinctive camaraderie.

One of these riders was world adventure traveller and Husqvarna Motorcycles ambassador, Lyndon Poskitt, who made the journey Down Under from Spain and had an absolute blast experiencing the Trek alongside the Aussie Husky crew.

Australian Husky rider, and five-time member of the ISDE-winning Women’s World Trophy Team and multiple Australian Women’s Enduro Champion, Jemma Wilson, was back for her second Husky Trek and one of four ladies who took part.

The feature video highlighting all the action from the Trek is coming soon, but in the meantime, here’s a video teaser of this year’s epic ride.
