Ryu Myung Gul is the 1st motorcycle rallyist in Korea

As a proud son of horse riding ancestors, Ryu challenge for 2020 DAKAR series challenge for the first time for Korean

The Dakar Rally (or simply "The Dakar"; formerly known as the "Paris–Dakar Rally") is an annual rally raid organised by the Amaury Sport Organisation. The race is an off-road endurance event. The terrain that the competitors traverse is much tougher than that used in conventional rallying, and the vehicles used are true off-road vehicles. Most of the competitive special sections are off-road, crossing dunes, mud, camel grass, rocks, and erg among others. The distances of each stage covered vary from short distances up to 800–900 kilometres (500–560 mi) per day.

All of Kiheung staff wish him to stand on the podium in Dakar series, and decided to happily support his dream because his passion and effort in difficult situation can match well to our company philosophy.

We wish him to safely finish the 2020 Dakar series, and it can be a millstone to make Korean motorcycle culture to be prosper ever after.
