Just a quick reminder, on our Day of the dead, Baja & Canyons and our Copper Canyon tours, we have a very strong focus on food and culture!
Not only do we ride some of the best roads in Mexico but eating well is essential to a successful tour. Most of the time everyone orders a la carte so everyone will get their best choices. A frequent review we get is "not enough said about the fantastic food and the ability to order off the menu"

Vamos amigos, bon appétit

So last week we climbed Umling La, on Royal Enfield Himalayan, the highest motorable road in the world. While there I took a drone selfie with the group. This might be the highest or second highest selfie taken with a drone ever!
this is what Gemini Ai had to say :)

It's quite possible that you've taken one of the highest drone selfies ever!

Umling La, being the world's highest motorable pass at 19,024 feet, presents a unique challenge and opportunity for drone photography. While drones have been used in the area before, primarily for surveying and research purposes, taking a selfie at that altitude is certainly less common.

It's unlikely that many people have had the chance to capture a selfie with a drone at that specific location and altitude. So, congratulations! You may very well have achieved a unique feat in drone photography.

Getting very excited about my Recon Tour to Ladakh. I've seen and heard of this place, where the land meets the heavens, and have always wanted to experience it for myself. Taking a Royal Enfield Himalayan across the highest motorable pass in the world, Umling La, will be a true test of riding and tackling extreme elevations. At 19,024 feet (5,799 m), Umling La will be the highest elevation I've ever ridden a motorcycle.

Gear is always a struggle—what to pack and what to leave behind.
For sure, my camera Sony A7c and gear will get first priority for space: video gear, DJI Pocket 3, Insta360, GoPro, and the Dji Air 3 drone.

Probably the KLIM Kodiak riding suit, Gore-Tex pants and jacket, Canada Goose down jacket, Mountain Hardwear down pants, KLIM Krios carbon fiber helmet with a Sena communicator, and Formaboots tall Adventure boots. Mosko Moto lighter jacket and backpack. Various kinds of gloves and a couple of thermal tops, and with that, I think I'm well set.

Researching the area and conditions led me to this video I want to share with you:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1x1Vix17Y8&ab

We will be sharing a bunch of photos from this tour in the days to come and will be adding this to our selection of tours for next year. Keep an eye on the progress and I hope that we will be able to share this amazing place with you guys in the future!

If you have been there, please share some of your thoughts, photos, and advice you might have, we would love to hear from you!

Copper Canyon

We just added a date for the Copper Canyon tour in September 2024. So both a spring date and fall, you cant miss!! Copper Canyon isn't just one canyon, it's a network of six staggering gorges, dwarfing even the Grand Canyon in depth and area. It's a geological wonderland carved by time and the relentless Urique River, its depths echoing with the whispers of Tarahumara legends. This journey isn't just about the adrenaline rush of hairpin turns and breathtaking vistas. It's about immersing yourself in a vibrant tapestry of cultures. Quaint villages, each with its own distinct charm, dot the canyon's embrace. Peek into artisan workshops where generations-old traditions breathe life into colorful textiles and handcrafted trinkets. Savor the warmth of local hospitality, where steaming cups of aromatic coffee and plates piled high with enchiladas await weary riders. So, dust off your helmet, check your tires, and let's lose ourselves in the untamed beauty of Copper Canyon. This is a ride for the soul, a chance to reconnect with nature, with history, and with the thrill of the open road.

About MotoDiscovery

MotoDiscovery was founded in 1981 by Skip Mascorro, originally based out of El Paso, Texas, offering motorcycle tours of Old Mexico. At that time, and until the year 2000, the company was known as Pancho Villa Moto-Tours. Already established as an experienced leader in motorcycle tours of Mexico and all of Central and South America, the transition to the fresh MotoDiscovery brand was a result of our successful and in some cases, groundbreaking, expansions into Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Today, MotoDiscovery is located north of San Antonio, Texas on the edge of the Hill Country, in addition to a new Colorado office, rental motorcycle, and equipment outfitter located in Grand Junction. As we grow, we continue to take pride in delivering fresh authentic touring experiences built on exceptional value, sincere service, and great style. Bottom line, your experience with MotoDiscovery comes with an attitude that captures the joys and rewards of travel on two wheels. We hope this page will serve as a communication and network resource for all those who share our passion for adventure, as well as for engaging the people of the planet and who love motorcycling as we do.
