Dear president, and members of Moto Guzzi Club Of Sweden,
 
Cross Egypt Challenge is happy to invite the members of your prestigious club to its flagship rally, "Cross Egypt Challenge" this November 14-22, 2014 in Egypt.
 
Cross Egypt Challenge is a series of international cross-country endurance motorcycle and scooter rallies conducted throughout one of the most mysterious and fascinating countries of the world, Egypt. The series started in 2011 and the first season was a 9 days rally from the shores of the Mediterranean Sea in the North of Egypt to the temple of Abu Simbel, on the southern borders of Egypt for a total distance of over 1700 km. Both the following two seasons witnessed a 2400 km route through the Egyptian western desert where the riders enjoyed riding between the most exotic oases of the Sahara desert. They also had participants from over 20 different countries.
 
The 2014 season of Cross Egypt Challenge will start on November 14 and will last for 9 days. The successful series will include a fascinating and challenging route of 3000 km which will start from the Mediterranean city of Alexandria; pass by Egypt's capital, Cairo, make stops at the Red Sea resort cities of Sokhna, Elgouna and Marsa Alam. The challenge will then head west to the Nile valley to visit Aswan and the ancient city of Luxor, the world's largest open air museum city, and  the capital of Ancient Egypt.  From Luxor the riders will head North west to explore some of the most fascinating oasis of the Egyptian Sahara (desert). A total number of 4 oasis will be explored on route before the final leg of the 2014 season of Cross Egypt Challenge takes place between Bahareya Oasis and Cairo to end the new season under the Great Pyramids of Giza.
 
Cross Egypt Challenge provides a very rewarding and challenging experience for participating riders from around the globe as it combines the best of adventure travels and extreme sports.  For any more information about Cross Egypt Challenge, please visit the website http://www.crossegyptchallenge.com
