One of the Territory’s most beloved motorcycle endurance events makes its return promising breathtaking action for its 53rd outing, with one rider looking to make it four wins in a row.

Kamfari is undoubtedly one of the NT’s most prolific and long lasting motorsports events and this year is expected to be as exciting as ever.

Among the competitors is Darwin’s own Chris Warwick, who has been a mainstay of the four hour event for the past 20 years.

He has a unique opportunity to make it four wins in a row having won the past three editions of the four hour race, as well as in 2017 and 2018.

Warwick also has four runner-ups and two third places to cement his place as a real legend of the Kamfari Enduro.

Jason McArthur is another familiar face in the quads category last year winning his fourth title.

Kamfari is set along the Cox Peninsula Road with flood plains, bog hole, high country runs, gullies and streams all sure to put machines and riders to the test.

For 2025 DMCC president Daniel Nagle has ensured spectators have better access to viewing the action whether at the staging area or by walking along the bush tracks.

Spectators can also get a bird’s eye view by purchasing a helicopter flight to see all the action from the air.

The bike racing gets under way from 10am on Sunday with the quad racing starting soon after from 10.05, with the finish being when the rider in first crosses the finish line of the 12km track after four hours.
