A first look back at BizzRiders 2026.
Despite the extraordinary heatwave, we were delighted to welcome a near-capacity
audience to GridX for the inaugural edition of BizzRiders 2026.
Jérôme Martiny – Dakar 2027
One of the highlights of the evening was hearing from Jérôme Martiny, who shared the
realities of competing at the highest level of rally raid and his ambitions for Dakar 2027. His
journey reminded us that extraordinary goals are achieved through resilience, discipline and
perseverance.
