Plenty of reasons to celebrate as RIDE Adventures, LLC was formally born just a couple of years ago today!

As fine a bike as BWM's R1200GS Adventure is, the motorcycle is not without its shortcomings.

How should you pack?  With a topcase or a waterproof bag strapped across the back? 

Time for some laughs on a Friday....

Looking back at this photo from the recent AltRider "Conserve the Ride" event in Pennsylvania, I'm reminded of how often the question arises:  "Aren't those riding pants hot?"

Not trying to be too direct here, but BMW R1200GS Adventure owners need to buy these engine guards from Adventure Designs.  Might as well do so, cause you're going to pay for them one way or another!

Sometimes it's "the little things" that make us love our motorcycles.  Whether it's memories of an incredible adventure ride or how we've "fit" the motorcycle to our own ergonomic perfection, it sure feels great to be truly "connected" to the bike we ride.

In the spirit of Independance Day in the United States, RIDE Adventures is hereby announcing our first American motorcycle tour!

When we discover an excellent product, especially one that deals with motorcycle safety, rest assured we'll be letting you know about it.  In this case it's Rox Speed FX's handle bar risers for the BMW R1200GS Adventure (although they make risers that will work for Suzuki, Kawasaki, Triumph, KTM, and many other brands.)
