  • March2020, passenger wanted for 1-2 week round trip in South Africa at the Cape, small Karoo

    Hello together, I plan for the March 2020 about 1-2 weeks round trip in South Africa on the Cape, small Karoo and a piece of Gardenroute and look for possible riders (possible bikes for rent Africa-Twin, BMW-GS / F). A request, write only if you are interested and not if you just want to know everything better or nagging like some ,-) To the point, I was in the last years about a dozen times there to vacation and a part of my family spends the winter in Capetown. The Str. Last year I drove alone and it was great, but it’s stupid if you talk to yourself at every break and every evening in the hotel or just hangs on the smartphone. I’m open for ideas about the course and the tour. I would be able to get there, for example: Cape Town, then take over the bikes and 1-3 days with day tours (to the Cape, Winelands, small passes in the surrounding area and a little “Gravel route”) and then a few days through the Karoo-Worcester, Matjiesfontein, Prince-Albert, Swartberg-Pass etc.-. on the coast over George, Mossel-Bay, Witsand, Cape Agulhas (the right cape), Hermanus ect. So if you want to ride a motorcycle in the best weather for a few days in winter, then I would just be happy.

  • Tour to Morocco

    Hi people, I have been dreaming about a tour to Morocco for a long time. Now I have the possibility to start this tour at short notice. The duration is to be between 2-5 weeks in November / December. As a motorcycle, my Yamaha XT660Z TÈNÈRÈ is available to me. Since I have already planned such a tour in the long term, I have also started to prepare the machine fundamentally for it. But what interests me primarily are experiences of motorcyclists which have done such a tour before. What can you tell me specifically about the topic of overnight stays? I would like to camp or generally prefer cheap guesthouses. Which areas should one necessarily drive and which avoid? Since the preparation now has to take place relatively short time, I would also be very pleased about personal contact. Please write to me personally (first here as PM for contact details). But about any input I am of course auc h happy greeting here

    Hello forum, in August I was on my first big motorcycle trip in Morocco. Destination of the trip: to see the Sahara (-: off we went in Cádiz (Andalusia) via Algeciras and Ceuta down the Atlantic coast to Agadir. From there I went over the Atlas Mountains towards the desert. Back we went over Tinghir and the Atlas Mountains to Spain. The way back to Franken led me over the Pyrenees, Provence, Liguria and the Alps. Previous episodes: – Episode 1: From Cádiz nac h Algeciras – Episode 2: From Algeciras to Ceuta – Episode 3: From Ceuta to Essaouira – Episode 4: From Essaouira to Agadir – Episode 5: From Agadir to Zagora – Episode 6: From Zagora to Mhamid in the desert The last three episodes are still coming.

  • Recommended Harley rental in the USA?

    I will be driving Route-66 in May and I have to rent Harleys in the USA. Since the bikes are rented in Chicago and returned to LA, it probably needs a nationwide provider. Of course, EagleRider comes to mind. Has any of you had good/bad experiences with them? Did you book directly with them online or through one of their German agents? Does anyone know Reuther Entertainments? They value being independent of EagleRider and would also have station in Chicago and LA. (Price would be about the same.) What else would there be for landlords you can recommend?

  • Legal situation with guided tours

    Good morning, Kuzes Foreword: I would like to find here expressly no legal advice, but only a few information to a language further information. What about the legal responsibility with guided motorcycle tours? In particular the question of liability in the event of accidents or general misconduct of my side and of others. My naive idea is to offer (half) day tours in my home country. According to the motto: offer times and if people want to ride it is nice, if not then it is ok. Max. 8-10 participants. I would limit myself to the route. So plan route and stops for sights and stopovers and lead. Profit-orientedness is not in the foreground, but should also not be excluded. According to my previous researches one is responsible as organizer, and especially there I want to know of course what I do. Is a “normal” lawyer here the right contact point? Who formulates e.g. the participant condition What else can there be for conditions? Tax law questions are another topic, whereby I consider this to be obvious (registration of trades). Greeting Christoph

  • Motorcycle – neck pain – ordeal on the tour

    Dear community, maybe someone with the same problem can help me solve it for myself: Since I am 18 I drive a motorcycle – often very long distances. Depending on the model I drive, I have since been getting burning and stabbing pain between the neck and shoulder blades after about 2 hours. I had no problems on Yamaha FZ1 and BMW F800GS. However, there are problems on CB 550 Four, FZR 1000, FJ 1200, FJR 1300, GS1150 ADV and unfortunately also on my aktu ellen GS 1200 ADV. What I think can be excluded are: – false helmet – problem is independent – false wind protection FZ 1 has no, 800 GS has tested which – inadequate training (daily 40 minutes back, abs, arms) – handlebar increase up and down – uses nothing – different benches with different heights and within these still different adjustment heights. So it must be due to the ergonomics of the motorcycle. I don’t want this So now it has to be rebuilt until it fits. What might help is a handlebar that is closer to the upper body. Is there anything there? Does anyone have any other ideas? The picture shows the seat position still with handlebar lift. For your help already thank you very much.

  • I’ve been away for a few days, and I’ve got photos on the way…

    Following a spontaneous inspiration, I asked my wife to pack my bags for the motorcycle suitcases, because she knows better what I need on tour than myself. Quickly another set of Pirelli Scorpion Rallye STR for the R1200GS procured and assembled, plugged in check and credit card as well as a few hundred euro cashes and off for it. I drove in 9 days exactly 4015 kilometers, burned 240 liters of super gasoline, saw insanely beautiful landscapes, great and interesting met ante people, stayed at ingenious spots and experienced exciting things. I chose 60 pictures for interested people. Are self-explanatory part 1

  • ACT Greece 2019 Tour – with more than just interested passengers

    The ACT Greece is planned with more than “only interested ” passengers ( which seem almost never to be the starting point ) in the period May 2019. This period is flexible and is considered as an indication until you have the suitable force together. Since there is also to be a bit more relaxed there unfortunately also ALTENED RESTRICTIONS Since this is an enduro tour is also a well equipped enduro needed and provided …………. ST FOR THE “I COMM DA NOT LANG ” fraction must be able to move the passengers safely away from the roads. Enduro courses are helpful here and I therefore use them as a must. Well-prepared and equipped machines are also natural for me. This also includes the straight adjustment of the handlebar position, the lever with handguards as well as the suspension settings. Feet are basically right on the ground, not only the footpits. zen, if you are sitting on the machine in the stand. Due to the routes should also be more than just a “sport tank with 6 or 7 liters “. There will also be no 250 KG bombers with you again! Procedures to this effect: Find Energetic passengers Plan a suitable period for all driving associations Book and go to have a lot of fun ……… Getting to know a real before in an acceptable setting would be helpful, but not necessarily a must. Please spare this I have a GS 1200 but I can still drive great terrain ” etc. etc. ……….
