general information

An unforgettable motorcycle trip on the streets of South Italy and Sicily.On the Italian mainland we enjoy the popular holiday town Tropea and needn’t wait for the next highlight – our route in direction North along the unique Amalfi coast. The many bays look inviting for a little swim – keep your bathing trunks ready. At the end of our tour Rome impresses us with a mix of metropolitan flair, antique architecture and people from all over the world.Sicily – this island offers everything a motorcycle rider can dream of: curvy mountain streets, little traffic and cosy trattorias. We start our trip in Catania and as Goethe once wrote: “Italy without Sicily is soulless. Here lies the key to everything.” A glistening sea, Mediterranean delicacies, cultural jewels and motorcycle roads. Mount Etna with its soft smoke cloud above it is always in our view. We cross the Western part of the island and dare to ride the centre of the Mafia, Corleone.

Clothing we highly recommend bringing:

– Helmet (highly recommended: full face)

– Gloves (Waterproof, breathable, lightweight, or insulating materials)

– back protector (snug-fitting)

– Jacket (elbows & shoulders should be protected)

– Pants (knees, hips & even your seat should be protected)

– Boots (oil resistant & non-slip soles)

– rain gear (prepare yourself for warm/dry & cold/wet weather!)
