Switching from paved roads to off-road riding can seem daunting, especially for riders who are no longer in their twenties. Yet, the call of adventure and the desire to explore off the beaten path remains strong, no matter the age. So how do you make the leap and prepare for unforgettable off-road experiences? Let’s explore some key tips for improving your off-road skills and making your adventure dreams a reality.

The vast Indonesian archipelago fuels the imagination of travellers and the desire to explore new places. From Bali to Java, the transition from one world to another reveals two distinct universes shaped by the same volcanic fury. To turn our dreams into memories, there’s nothing better than taking the back roads on a motorbike!

A motorbike tour in Madagascar is so much more than a simple ride through spectacular landscapes. It’s a deep dive into the heart of the Red Island, a human adventure where every encounter and every mile traveled transforms you. This is the unique experience we captured in our film, “MADAGASCAR: Ride To The Roots” as we followed a handful of riders on a personal quest for meaning, a return to what’s essential, and a tribute to freedom.

Picture your very first motorcycle journey unfolding against a backdrop you’d hardly dare to imagine: shimmering emerald rice terraces carved into green hillsides, mist-shrouded valleys infused with the scent of dawn, and rivers catching the morning light as they wind gently toward the sea. Vietnam offers an enchanting feast for the eyes, even if you’re just starting out on two wheels.

The leather jacket is one of the strongest symbols in the motorcycling world. For decades, it has embodied the spirit of freedom, adventure, and rebellion on the road. However, when it comes to setting off on a motorcycle tour, or even perfecting your riding skills at a motorcycle training course, this icon faces real limitations: weight, breathability, adaptability to weather conditions… In response to these challenges, a new generation of jackets designed for long distances and varied conditions has emerged. Among them, La Baroudeuse, developed with and for motorcycle travelers, stands out as a modern alternative.

Embarking on a motorcycle road trip alone is a promise of total freedom. But for many riders, the idea of venturing out alone comes with a mix of excitement and hesitation.

Our trips allow you to experience the thrill of independent travel while benefiting from the support and camaraderie of a group.

Motorcycle is not just about the journey; it’s about rediscovering freedom, enhancing health, and embracing new challenges. Here are 10 reasons why now is the ideal time to start riding.
