Malle London have announced a nine-day rally, taking riders from Copenhagen all the way to the Arctic Circle. Starting on August 7, 2025, the ride will send adventurers on the “longest and greatest motorcycle rally ever attempted across Scandinavia and the Arctic” according to the organisers, taking in the greatest biking roads of Denmark, Sweden and Norway, right the way north to Nordkapp. 

Malle founder, Robert Nightingale, told MCN: “The Great Malle Arctic Rally continues the camaraderie and inclusive feel of The Malle Mile, but over 2000 miles.” 

Participants can rent motorcycles or ride their own bikes, either braving the ride to the start line, or by making use of the ‘Deluxe Package’ which includes direct transfers to and from the event. While the organisers pitch the event as a challenge, you don’t need to be a Dakar hero to enter.

“The rally is purely focused on completing and it’s definitely not about competing,” said Nightingale. “Our aim is to enable each rider to focus on the rally experience together with their teammates and friends, explore the very best of Scandinavia by motorcycle, surrounded by a host of daring riders, who all share the same thirst for adventure and a passion for motorcycles.” 

Expert engineers, including the team from custom firm DeBolex, will be along to keep bikes running smoothly no matter the vintage, and medics will be on standby throughout. In typical Malle fashion, the event will offer a lavish flair with luxury bell tents providing accommodation. 

“At the end of each day’s stage, there’s suitably inappropriate entertainment, from waterfall swimming, saunas and adventure talks, to schnapps tastings, camp fires and more,” Nightingale added.
