Our tours are not about proving something.
An African motorcycle adventure should leave you with stories, friendships and a deeper appreciation of the places you have travelled through. Enjoying that experience also means understanding what the road is asking of you. Changing surfaces, unfamiliar traffic and a loaded motorcycle reward observation, sound judgement and smooth control.
The thinking behind Under Load and Inside the Helmet carries through to our tours. We encourage riders to understand the motorcycle, recognise changing conditions and make considered decisions within their ability.
We travel as a group, look after our machines and take responsibility for one another. That leaves room to enjoy a mountain road, stop for a photograph or share a conversation over something to eat.

What is different on our tours?
We normally travel with six or seven guest riders and a guide on a motorcycle. Small groups make it easier to stop, explore and build the camaraderie that matters on a motorcycle journey.
The thinking behind Under Load and Inside the Helmet continues on the road. Understanding how the motorcycle behaves, noticing changing conditions and making sound decisions help us enjoy the riding while respecting our own limits.
We look after the motorcycles because the group depends on them. We look after one another because a good rider also contributes to a good group. Safe, enjoyable riding and consideration for others matter as much as individual ability.
Our tours are personally led by Johan Olivier, whose guiding and BMW off-road instruction experience inform the preparation, route choices and practical advice along the way.
Where possible, we support locally owned and family-run accommodation. We choose places with character and make time for local food, photographs and the conversations that begin when we stop.
You can expect an organised journey with room to enjoy the unexpected.
