Want to maximize your motorcycle's performance? Start with tire pressure testing! You don't need to be a pro test rider—just document your adjustments. Choose a loop that mixes pavement and off-road, and focus on how your tires feel. Stick to one variable at a time—don't tweak your suspension settings with every test. Small changes can lead to big results!

It's time to set up your winter riding plans. Book Baja in August and get a 10% discount. That could be up to over $800 off if you book from Cabo up to San Diego!

Think knobby tires are your ticket to mastering dirt riding? Think again! Sure, they help, but real skill comes from pushing yourself on less ideal setups. Without the extra grip, you’re forced to focus, pick better lines, and truly refine your technique. Want to be a better rider? Ditch the dependency and embrace the challenge!

Our Story

RIDE Adventures is a tour operator helping adventure-minded travelers with International Guided and Self-Guided motorcycle riding experiences since 2010, and in 2017, we added 4x4 Adventure Travel options. Born in the Andes Mountains of Patagonia, we have since grown into other continents and regions, but maintain our Head Office in beautiful Oregon in the U.S.

Choosing the right motorcycle or 4x4 adventure trip might be difficult, given the enormous list of possible places to explore around the world. If you’re unsure about ‘which is best for me?’ please start a conversation via the Contact Us form on www.rideadv.com. Our intimate knowledge and operations in the regions shown on our website will help you make the best adventure travel plans, whether they are for Self-Guided or Guided Group motorcycle trips, or 4x4 adventure tours. Furthermore, our existing fleets of rental motorcycles and 4x4’s means you don’t have to worry about “shipping your own.” Inquire further or visit our website to see the professionally-maintained, late model options we already have waiting for you in each region.

While there are many means of travel (bus, plane, boat) we at RIDE Adventures appreciate the spirit that comes with operating your own vehicle on such adventures, especially if that involves anything going for a RIDE. Perhaps a slightly deeper message we hope to convey is that: We live in a big, beautiful world full of fun, friendly, helpful, and kind people. No matter what the news or social media seems to highlight for us, nor the divides they attempt to forge between us, Travelers can rest assured that the absolute majority of us are good people. We at RIDE Adventures want to help you get out there and experience this truth for yourself.
