Another great opportunity to communicate with the motorcycle riding world just published in a recent interview with Bruce Steever during the International Motorcycle Show in New York.
We posted another video about motorcycle adventure tours in Patagonia!
We've had a fun couple of weeks full of publicity, talking about adventure tours with motorcycle riders, and enjoying the International Motorcycle Show in New York City. Not only was our picture and the name "RIDE Adventures" listed in the back of the 2011 IMS Guide, but our interview with Bruce Steever from Advanstar was a nice opportunity to share our thoughts about the show.
The BMW R1200GS vs The KTM 990 Adventure: Which bike is better?
With the release of Yamaha's 1200 Super Tenere some time ago, and now Triumph's new Tiger 800 XC, it's quite clear that manufacturers are noticing the rising trend in dual-sport adventure riding taking place everywhere. Looks like we all have one more horse to adorn our stable with, soon.
Another famous point of interest for motorcycle riders riding through Peru is the Lineas de Nazca (Nazca Lines) just a few minutes north of the town of Nazca itself.
Created by the Nazca people between 400 and 650 AD, the lines were created by carving away red pebbles inherent to the land to reveal the white stone underneath. Most of these carvings are of birds, mammals, fish, and human figures, and can be over 600 feet wide. Because they are on flat ground and so large, viewing of the Nazca lines is best done from airplane overhead.
What an exciting day!
Just some more random pictures and sites you'll see on your motorcycle adventures in Peru!
(Enjoy an inside look at some travel notes from my first research mission about motorcycle tours in Patagonia, going back to early 2010.)
Here's some notes about what it's like to start in Santiago, Chile and ride through Patagonia to Ushuaia, Argentina which is commonly referred to as "The End of the World." This area, along with many other places in South America were the source of inspiration to start the company RIDE Adventures. More people need to see Patagonia, and motorcycles are the perfect way to do that.
