DAYTONA BEACH, Fla.
(March 12, 2026) –
Following season opener at
the DAYTONA Flat Track, the
2026 AFT AdventureTrackers™
championship is narrowing
its sights on the most
storied venues in American
motorcycle racing. The chase
for the title will now be
decided across a curated
selection of the sport’s
most prestigious “Crown
Jewel” events, centering the
championship battle at the
historic Jackpine Gypsies
facility in Sturgis and the
legendary Peoria TT.
Originally devised to
provide the Dual Adventure
segment a competitive
outlet, AFT
AdventureTrackers showcases
the performance and
versatility of modern
adventure motorcycles in
near-production trim. With
championship-caliber riders
at the controls, the class
earned a reputation for
thrilling racing as
competitors navigate the
versatile machines around
unique racecourses in
dramatic fashion.
The pursuit of the title
resumes this August amidst
the energy of the
world-famous Sturgis
Motorcycle Rally. The
Jackpine Gypsies Motorcycle
Club will serve as a
high-intensity hub for the
class, hosting two critical
rounds that test every facet
of Adventure riding. On
August 8, riders will tackle
the Jackpine Gypsies Super
TT, a technical masterclass
featuring high-speed
sections and a jump designed
to push machines to their
limits. This will be
followed on August 10 by a
return to the facility for
the Jackpine Gypsies Short
Track, a pure display of
bar-to-bar aggression and
agility on a tight,
demanding oval.
The 2026 AFT
AdventureTrackers season
will reach its definitive
crescendo at one of the most
revered stops on the
circuit: the Peoria TT. By
positioning the Peoria
Motorcycle Club as the
season finale on August 22,
the AFT AdventureTrackers
class provides a fittingly
grand stage for a champion
to be crowned. Known for its
rich history and the iconic
jump that has defined
generations of racing,
Peoria represents the
ultimate proving ground for
the performance and
authenticity of modern
adventure motorcycles from
manufacturers including BMW,
Harley-Davidson, Honda,
Suzuki, and Triumph.
This championship path
intensifies the pressure on
riders and teams, as every
lap at these historic venues
now carries immense weight
toward the final standings.
