Live at Bike Shed Moto Co.
Legends of Dakar | 29th Dec 2026
Legends of Dakar is a celebration of everything that makes the Dakar Rally the world's most iconic motorsport event. From outrageous stories told by the racers who lived them to insights into the extraordinary world of rally raid, we bring together the people, stories and atmosphere that make Dakar so special. All in an iconic venue, for one of the best nights out between Christmas and New Year.
To celebrate Dakar's return to Africa for the first time in 19 years, we're heading back to the legendary Bike Shed Moto Co. in London for an evening of motorcycles, motorsport and winter festivities.
We'll kick things off with a series of bite-sized rally masterclasses from Joe Mercer, Si Pavey and Ben Harvey-Grounds, diving into the skills, secrets and madness of competing in the world's toughest race.
Next up is a special screening of Brake Magazine's feature film, 100 Kicks in the Desert, before we round off the night with the main event: an unforgettable live conversation hosted by Chris Northover and Llel Pavey, featuring incredible stories, outrageous adventures and behind-the-scenes insights from our guest Dakar legends.
Whether you're a lifelong Dakar fanatic or simply love motorcycles and a great story, Legends of Dakar is a night you won't want to miss.
