Dual Sport and Adventure Touring

Across BC, less than 20% of the publicly accessible roads are paved.  Dual sports and ADV – street legal, off-road worthy motorcycles – give us access to the other 80%.  This workshop will help you adapt your street riding skills to off-road riding, and learn navigation, observation, and tactics for the most important objective of all: arriving home safe.

Adventure Touring - Off-road Ways to On Road  Places

Only around 20% of the roads across BC are paved.  Riding a Dual Sport or Adventure Touring motorcycle give us access to the other 80%.  It also allows us to ride forest roads and trails without a support vehicle, and connect off-road rides with short stretches of pavement.

If you ride a dual sport for the versatility, but have wanted to explore off the paved path, the V-Twin Dual Sport Workshop will get you started.  And Adventure Touring is about finding off-road ways to get to on-road places.

  • Equipment needs - motorcycle preparation
