Yes, bought the T-Shirt. Shame on KTM.

Thanks for popping by...

Europe is a must-do on two wheels. From the legend that is the Stelvio Pass, the Spanish Pyrenees and bonkers Nurburgring to Tuscany, the Millau Viaduct, the highest road in Europe and the Trans Euro Trail, what could possibly go wrong... 😬

We’ve ridden the Gorafe Ridges, Swiss and Italian Alps and more on our adventures through Europe. The Motoeuro YouTube channel features exciting travel films, bike reviews, and Trans Euro Trail adventures. You can also find more information about us here. Enjoy.

Kove’s 800x Adventure Motorbike is looking very temping at £1,500 less than a Yamaha T700 and 25kgs lighter than a Honda Transalp.

Tempted? Or…. Is it too early to tell? Are we getting carried away with the new boy on the block when there’s no long-term reviews and a poor dealer network in the UK. Got one on order? Or will you stick to your bullet-proof Japanese moto and get that £1,500 back on residual value?

Watch now!

ABR-2025

Assuming we're invited back, we really hope to see you again at the ABR Festival 2025!

Held in the grounds of a typically opulent 16th century country house in Warwickshire, the ABR Festival is an ideal excuse to ride your bike off road, get hammered, over-eat and share hangover stories.

Motoeuro Flashbacks...

Motoeuro to Stelvio and Tuscany

14 days, 7 countries
 - A 3,000 mile epic adventure taking in St.Tropez, Cannes, the Stelvio Pass, Tuscany, Jaufenpass and even the odd Autobahn. Yes, we drank far too much.

The Stelvio Pass

Conquering the Alps!

At almost 10,000ft in the sky, Col de la Bonette is the highest traffic bearing pass in Europe. Motoeuro heads off is search of 'proper Alps', the Napoleon Route and Grand St.Bernard.

La Bonette

The Spanish Pyrenees

We ride the Spanish Pyrenees in glorious sunshine with full intention of coasting the French Riviera, Napoleon Route and more. Let's hope no one breaks down. FFS...

Pyrenees

Riding the Nürburgring 'Green Hell'...

Motoeuro Nurburgring

Jackie Stewart nicknamed the ‘Ring as "The Green Hell" in the late 1960’s. It’s Infamous, dangerous and just a bit bonkers. Some people take this really, really seriously. We try to, but fail.

It was probably during a good Friday night out the boys of Motoeuro decided to ride the Nürburgring. Blame the beer. We bolted on a few days in the Black Forest with seemingly endless sweeping roads on the B500 and a visit to the spa town of Baden Baden. Sounds like a plan.

Nurburgring

Take a BM’ R1200RT, a Triumph Daytona 955i and Aprilia’s mental Tuono, book the ferry tickets, hope for dry conditions, off we go. Discover our nerve shredding adventure to the ‘Ring motorsports complex in the town of Nürburg, Rhineland-Palatinate, Germany.

Gorafe and Tabernas Desert adventure on an Africa Twin, BMW R1200GS

We ride through Spain to find dusty tracks, rocky ridges and cold beer.

Can 3 unfit middle-aged friends, on very heavy bikes, have a proper adventure? We ride the Gorafe Ridges, Tabernas Desert and more! Big adventure bikes go off-road on our big Spanish adventure.

Remember, it’s NOT a holiday! Movie chosen by legend Austin Vince for the Adventure Travel Film Festival!

Just can't get enough? More flashbacks...

Exploring the Trans Euro Trail

Trans Euro Trail

The Trans Euro Trail is a 50,000km adventure from the Arctic Circle to North Africa.

Trans Euro Trail is an epic motorcycle journey through some of Europe’s most remote, diverse and inspirational landscapes. Powered by a team of enthusiastic volunteers called Linesmen, the 'TET' relies on its community to find and manage the evolving network of tracks that criss cross thirty countries.

We've been exploring the Northern UK section, unbelievable that these great trails are on our very doorstep and we never knew!

Discover more by clicking here.
(oh, and please donate the cost your first tank of TET fuel to keep the project alive!)

 

A fantastic trail riding adventure and it's free...

What will you discover on the TET?

Download the free GPX file from the TET website and get started with your mates on what could be the adventure of a lifetime. Pick your battles, summer is the easiest time to tackle those water crossings and muddy ruts will be dryer and easier.

Get some good tyres, TCK 80's and Anakee Wilds will do, but for the sloppy stuff you’ll thank me for choosing something a little more dirt focussed (I'm had Dunlop D952's). Don’t break the first rule; ‘Never trail ride alone’. Believe me, it’s easier to pick your bike up with a couple of mates and more fun, don’t be precious, after all it's just a bike!

Discover amazing trails and open spaces

The TET is not graded by difficulty, that would be a near impossible task given the ever-changing conditions and the consideration of tyre choice, fitness, your riding ability etc.

However, here are a few tips from us…. Always follow the TET Code of Conduct, remember the trails go both ways, there’s a fair chance you’ll meet someone coming the opposite direction so go careful on single track. Always take some food and water, most trails are short (1-3miles) but on sloppy days, that can seem far longer! Give way to walkers, horses and cyclists by stopping and switching off engines. Take lots of photos / video! Post on the TET Facebook page.

Just for fun, visit our ‘Tails from the Trails’ page or for more, see our YouTube Channel. Enjoy 😀
