Onurlu-Gümüş Duo Triumphs in Raid

The fourth race of the North Cyprus 2024 Offroad Championship was held under the main sponsorship of Cyprus Constructions. This event was jointly organized by the Kyrenia Offroad Association and the North Cyprus Offroad Association.

In the grueling race held on October 19-20, 2024, 15 teams successfully crossed the finish line. Throughout the two-day event, competitors battled across the diverse terrains of Esentepe, Alagadi, Serdarlı, Balıkesir, and Geçitkale.

The Doğacı Offroad Association also contributed to the season’s biggest offroad race, “Cyprus Constructions Afrodisia Offroad Rally-Raid 2024,” fielding a large team in the Raid category.

In the Raid category—where the route is kept secret and competitors learn about the stages from road notes received at the start—the duo of Gökhan Onurlu and Fırat Gümüş secured victory. The pair of Mustafa Yemen and Muzaffer Yemen came in second, while Devrim Dedeoğlu and Yücel Güneş finished third. The raid category included both female and young competitors, with Demir Dedeoğlu and Defne Dedeoğlu receiving the youngest competitor awards. Among female pilots, Fazilet Gülbahar claimed the first-place trophy. In the female co-pilots category, Lara Sarıoğlu took first place, followed by Berayet Dedeoğlu in second and Buse Kurtoğlu in third.

The award ceremony for the race, which began at Pearl Island in Esentepe—a Cyprus Constructions project—was also held at the same location. Musa Ersoy, President of the Kyrenia Offroad Association, presented thank-you plaques to Esentepe-Çatalköy Mayor Ceyhun Kırok and Cyprus Constructions Director Salih Kayım, who attended the ceremony. In turn, Kırok and Kayım presented trophies to the winners.
