Win the Ducati DesertX
‘BDR Cross Continent Special Edition’

September 15, 2023

Seattle, WA – (October 20, 2023) – Backcountry Discovery Routes® (BDR®), the non-profit organization dedicated to developing adventure riding opportunities across the U.S., announced the launch of their 2023 BDR Motorcycle Sweepstakes Fundraiser happening now at www.WinBDRDesertX.com.

As is tradition for the annual sweepstakes, the BDR team selects the latest, top of the line adventure bike as a platform for customization and then works with their many industry partners to outfit and accessorize the ultimate backcountry travel machine.

This year’s build, the 2023 Ducati DesertX, was inspired in part by the organization’s upcoming California BDR-North Route, which when released in 2024, will enable riders to travel from Mexico to Canada – entirely on BDR curated routes.

Badged as the BDR “Cross Continent Special Edition” Ducati DesertX, the 110 horsepower motorcycle showcases an emblematic custom paint and graphics package meticulously designed by James Howard Creative. No detail was overlooked in outfitting this bike to be a truly one-of-a-kind masterpiece. In addition to the bespoke paintwork, it boasts an impressive array of over $20,000 worth of aftermarket upgrades generously donated by BDR industry partners.

In addition to the fully kitted Ducati DesertX, this year’s lucky sweepstakes winner will also take home a complete motorcycle camping kit, specially curated by the expert team at Moto Camp Nerd valued at over $1,600; and a complete set (13 in total) of the BDR Butler Motorcycle Maps.

Tickets start at just $25.00 and all funds raised go directly towards helping Backcountry Discovery Routes deliver on its mission of creating and preserving riding opportunities for adventure and dual-sport motorcycle riders.

The winning ticket will be drawn live on BDR social media January 5th at 1:00 pm Pacific Time.
