Motorcycle Rideout
The Bellingham Loop
Start in Newcastle, head west via Hexham, loop through Bellingham and Kielder. Breathtaking views, vistas and smooth tarmac. The ride itself provides stunning views, cresting over 1500 feet at Blakehope Nick. The CRF1100L Africa Twin, Tiger 1200 GT Explorer or Versys 1100 SE would eat this up, or have a blast on something sportier.
Motorcycle Rideout
Coastal Cruise to Bamburgh
Quiet lanes, quaint villages, and the mighty Bamburgh Castle. Journey through Rothbury, Morpeth, Alnwick, Boulmer and Seahouses en-route. All wrapped up with countryside & costal views. Best enjoyed on something comfy like the NT1100, NINJA H2 SX TOURER or legendary GOLD WING and ROCKET 3 STORM GT!
Motorcycle Rideout
Durham Dales Explorer
Teesdale and Weardale offer sweeping roads and some of the best views in County Durham. Bring a camera. And maybe a thermos. Teesdale and Weardale offer sweeping roads and some of the best views in County Durham. Bring a camera. And maybe a thermos. The Durham Dales offers scenic routes with varied landscapes and challenging roads, ideal for experienced riders. Popular routes include the A686 to Alston, the B6277 to Middleton-in-Teesdale, and the B6278 back to Stanhope. Why not ride a CB650R, CBR600RR, Trident 660, Street Triple 765 R, Z650 or Z650 RS
Motorcycle & Scooter Rideout
Newcastle, Sunderland, Hartlepool, Middlesborough
Great for testing scooters and smaller bikes like the Honda Forza range or the ADV350, Triumph Scrambler 400XC and Kawasaki Z400. Easily done on a tank of fuel and surprisingly fun. Take in Teeside's local sights and landmarks like the Tyne Bridge, Roker Lighthouse, Heugh Lighthouse, and Tees Transporter Bridge. Cruise the roads between towns and cities see the sights and cruise the urban jungle. Take a break at some of the local cafe's and browse the shops. Adventures await!
Motorcycle & Scooter Rideout
Crossing the Border
A great ride with a good mix of roads and scenery. Explore the Cheviot Hills, see Catcleugh Reservoir, and cross the border to Jedburgh, maybe squeeze in a pub lunch en-route. Could easily be as much fun on a CBR1000RR-R SP Fireblade, Speed Triple 1200 RS or Ninja H2R
Motorcycle Rideout
Tough Day at Work!
Sometimes all you need is some helmet space.
After a long day or if you just need a quick runout to clear the head. This is a quick hours run to the beach, and why not grab the Best Seaside Fish & Chips in UK according to the Guardian on the way.
Really doesn't matter what you ride here. We just hope it came from us!
Ride Safe!
