Races 

IBW 2022 is set to have five different race tracks and races scheduled for multiple different categories. There’s a Hill Climb event in partnership with CEAT, which is a time trial event. IBW will also have both a flat track and a Mud Rush event. There’s also the ‘Adventure Flow Track’, which is an obstacle course designed for ADVs, and the ‘Dirt Dash’ event, which will be a proper dirt race. For those who want to learn a few skills, there is a variety of track sessions to sign up for as well. Vishakh from BAR Academy will conduct hour-long Enduro sessions to master the hill trail, while Nelly from ProDirt Adventure, Motofarm and FMAE Motopark will coach people on the Adventure Track, Flow track and the Dirt Dash for Moto Cross and dirt enthusiasts.
