“Travelling – it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.” – Ibn Battuta

Not chasing destinations.
Chasing the feeling of getting there.

We’re Agata and Joris – two riders exploring the world on two wheels. From remote off-road tracks to long-distance journeys across continents, we share real stories, tested gear and the kind of adventure you can’t always plan.

The Grand Finale One last day on the ACT Greece The Grand Finale 

One last day on the ACT Greece tracks.

A few more muddy ruts. A road that wasn't quite there anymore. A bridge we definitely couldn't use. And enough twists and turns to last us for a while. 

But kilometre by kilometre, we were getting closer.

And then there it was: Vikos Gorge.
After everything it took to even get to ACT Greece – and after almost giving up on the idea completely – standing there at the end felt pretty special.

We made it. ACT Greece: done.

Official Day 1 at the RIDE Moto Festival… and what Official Day 1 at the RIDE Moto Festival… and what a day it was!

It was one of those days where so much happens that you don't even know where to start.

Of course, we spent plenty of time at the Adventure Country Tracks booth, chatting with fellow riders and sharing stories from the trails. But we also took every opportunity to wander around the festival, visit other exhibitors, relax in the chill zone, and admire everyone else's motorcycles. More than once. 

One of the highlights was the Speedway Arena. We watched the ACT Ride & Train team in action, saw kids taking their very first steps into off-road riding, and then came the show...

Kevin Gallas and Chris Birch throwing a Yamaha Ténéré and a KTM 890 around as if they were lightweight trials bikes. Maybe nobody told them those aren't supposed to do that! Mindblowing!

Later, we caught Chris Birch's talk. What an incredibly down-to-earth guy. Kevin had already headed off to join the Enduromaniacs event, but Chris stayed to chat, share stories and inspire riders of all levels.

Somewhere between all the motorcycles and conversations, we did the most German thing possible... stopped for a proper schnitzel. 

We wrapped up the day exactly as it should be wrapped up: relaxing with friends, listening to live music, and soaking in the atmosphere. Great weather, great people, and a festival that simply gets what motorcycling is all about.

RIDE Moto Festival: 3 days. 2 wheels. 1 love.

🆕VIDEO🆕 Nepal with @motobirds And finally… the v 🆕VIDEO🆕
Nepal with @motobirds 

And finally… the video. 
Only slightly less delayed than the blog post.

Our Nepal ride through Upper Mustang is now wrapped into one full trip video — from Kathmandu traffic and dusty mountain roads to Lo Manthang, Muktinath, suspension bridges, apple pie stops, ridiculous amounts of dust, and those views of Dhaulagiri and Annapurna that never really got old.

A lot happened in those few days, and this is probably the closest I can get to showing what the trip actually felt like.

So if you fancy spending a little time riding through Nepal with a bunch of badass women — grab a drink, turn the sound on, and come along.

Kalimera, Greece! 🇬🇷 After all the detours, delay Kalimera, Greece! 🇬🇷

After all the detours, delays and changing plans, we finally crossed the border into Greece.

Leskovik behind us, Nafpaktos ahead.

Dark clouds kept us company, the storm stayed just far enough away, and Greek roads immediately introduced us to their own interpretation of engineering. 

By evening we were looking over the Venetian harbour of Nafpaktos, seafood on the table, wine in the glasses and ACT Greece waiting for us the next morning.

We actually made it to the start.

Now we just had to ride it.

🆕VIDEO🆕 ACT Montebania Well… the blog post only t 🆕VIDEO🆕
ACT Montebania

Well… the blog post only took us 9 months to publish, so obviously the video needed a little more time.

14 months after the trip, our ACT Montenegro & Albania video is FINALLY here! 

Six ACT stages, 1150 km of Montenegro and Albania, rocky climbs, endless mountains, Lake Koman, questionable roads, wrong turns, old demons defeated, lots of dust… and a well-earned gin at the finish line.

It took us two weeks to ride it.
Nine months to write about it.
Fourteen months to make the video.

At this rate, we’re getting dangerously close to having a system. 

Grab a coffee (or a beer), get comfortable and come ride ACT Montebania with us.
