On the agenda

A packed hall, a reunion, glances exchanged and stories picking up where they left off.

In Lyon, over 450 riders gathered to celebrate 20 years on the road, surrounded by those who have shaped the adventure over the years.

Words from Alexandre Zurcher, a speech by Sylvain Tesson, the unveiling of an extraordinary expedition, a motorbike created especially for the occasion in collaboration with Royal Enfield, films, music, and above all a very real community, gathered in one place.

What unfolded here is not just captured in images or memories, but in the bond that unites those who set off one day and return changed.

An evening that served as a turning point, between what has been experienced and all that remains to be explored.
