How many bikes on each trip?

We offer bespoke personalised tours rather than large group rides. We try to have a maximum of 3 guest motorcycles per tour.

How do we make a booking ?

Where are you based ?

We operate from the seaside town of Melkbosstrand in Cape Town.

We have accommodation organised in Cape Town already, can we still do your tours?

Absolutely. We are happy to arrange to meet you at a suitable location and start the day trips from there. Just get in touch and we'll work out the details.

Can you provide helmets, gloves & jackets ?

Of course. We have a selection of helmets, gloves and jackets suitable for our climate available just for you.

Do you have communications between bikes, riders and their pillions ?

Absolutley! All our helmets come fully installed with bluetooth communication. This provides Mike the opportunity to explain all the interesting facts about Cape Town while you ride and of course for each rider/pillion/guide to communicate at any time. A fantastic addition to your riding experience.

We are in Cape Town outside of your advertised tour dates. Do you run trips all year round?

We're here all year, you just tell us when you are coming, where you will be staying and we'll arrange the rest. Our bikes and guide are ready for you.

What level of rider do I need to be?

All of our rides are 99% tar roads. We choose routes that are easy to ride, breathtaking to view and pillion friendly.

Are the bikes insured?

All of our bikes have Full Comprehensive insurance and this is covered in our tour price.

Will I need special medical insurance?

If you are visiting South Africa from overseas you will need to be sure to have proper holiday medical insurance covering the activities you wish to take part in on your holiday.

Do I need a motorcycle licence?

Yes, you will need to have a licence for the size of motorcycle you plan to use with us. If you are coming from outside South Africa you will require a licence that allows you to use this motorcycle in your home country.
