“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.

Getting there… eventually. The plan was ACT Greec Getting there… eventually.

The plan was ACT Greece.

Getting to the start of ACT Greece? Well, that became a trip of its own.

Poland → Serbia → North Macedonia → Albania → a few unexpected days off here and there → a change of plans → another change of plans → and finally… Leskovik.

Not exactly the route, timing or journey we had imagined when leaving home.

But that's motorcycle travel for you. Sometimes getting there is half the adventure.

Here's the short version.

🆕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. 

Full video on YouTube - link below / in bio.

🇱🇻 Latvia, here we come! OUTDURO Scout 2026 is ge 🇱🇻 Latvia, here we come!

OUTDURO Scout 2026 is getting close and we're really looking forward to this one. A new country for both of us, adventure riders, quests, workshops, music, food, campfires… and even a sauna. 😁

Of course, getting there couldn't be completely straightforward.

Joris will do it almost properly — leaving a few days earlier with a car and bikes on a trailer, taking his time and meeting some fellow bikers along the way.

Agata didn't manage to get time off work, so it's Plan B: ✈️ to Riga with a cheap airline, laptop bag as the only luggage and the rest of the stuff travelling comfortably with Joris. Joris will collect Agata from the airport when she arrives. Agata will work during the days as if nothing unusual is happening and enjoy OUTDURO in the afternoons and evenings.

And this time we're not only coming to enjoy the event — we'll also be among the speakers! 

Our topic? Travelling as a couple.

After all these years and kilometres together, we certainly have some stories to tell. Some of them we even remember the same way. 😉

See you in Latvia! 🇱🇻🏍️🔥

The Long Way Home ACT Greece behind us. Home some The Long Way Home

ACT Greece behind us. Home somewhere far to the north.
All that was left was to get there.

Except "going home" still meant Albania, Montenegro, Serbia, an unplanned detour through Bosnia and Herzegovina and Croatia, a night at Lake Balaton, and plenty more kilometres through Hungary and Slovakia.

No tracks to complete. No targets to chase. Just ride, stop somewhere nice, sleep, repeat. Until the familiar roads finally appeared and brought us back to Kraków.

Another adventure over. Bikes home. Riders home.

And yes… Still no flat tyres. 😎

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.
