🆕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.

Full video on YouTube - link below / in bio.

We made it to Ruhpolding! This weekend you'll fin We made it to Ruhpolding!

This weekend you'll find us at the @ride_motofestival, where we're proudly representing @adventurecountrytracks for the next three days.

If you've been following our adventures, you already know how much we love ACT. We've ridden their tracks across Europe on countless trips, so being invited to man the ACT booth at one of the biggest motorcycle festivals is a real honour.

Getting here wasn't exactly a relaxing ride... Mostly highways, endless weather changes, heavy rain one minute, blazing sunshine the next, and some seriously strong wind gusts. But we made it safe and sound, and that's what matters!

The festival kicks off tomorrow at 10:00, and we'll be at the ACT booth all weekend. Whether you're already planning your next adventure, curious about riding big adventure bikes off-road, or just want to stop by for a chat—we'd love to meet you!

Are you coming to the festival? Come and say hi!

Finally sharing the story from our Nepal ride through Upper Mustang — dusty roads, high passes, apple pie ranking, and a group of badass women on bikes.
Better late than never, right? 
Full story on the blog.
And a video will follow shortly!

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.
