• Not Every Rebelle Rally Competitor Goes It Alone

    The Rebelle Rally, the longest off-road map and compass navigation rally in the United States, which just happens to only be for women, originated in 2016 to nominal fanfare.

    You’re in the middle of the California desert. The GPS on your SUV has been disabled. There’s a 200,000-meter scale map in your co-driver’s lap on which she’s plotted a location the size of a pinhead with a tiny plastic ruler.
