A once-in-a-lifetime motorcycle journey that takes you straight into the heart of South Africa’s wild nature. Through the sun-drenched valleys of the Klein Karoo, climbing legendary mountain passes where long hairpin bends and endless views test rider and bike alike. The adventure continues into the wild beauty of the Eastern Cape, onto the remote dirt roads and river crossings of the iconic Babianskloof. It’s a journey of changing landscapes, rich local culture and the brotherhood of riders that only life on two wheels can create. Challenging yet deeply rewarding.

Austria’s alpine terrain covers more than 62% of the country with over 300 peaks over 3000 metres! That means dramatic views everywhere you look.
The iconic Grossglockner mountain pass stands as the highest paved point in Austria at 2504 metres. Simply put, a cyclist’s paradise! As you weave through 36 hairpin bends over 48 kilometres, you’ll be treated to stunning views of blooming alpine meadows, fragrant mountain forests, imposing cliffs and majestic glaciers.
With the rise in altitude comes the adrenaline rush as well as the cool air. There’s no better time than to stop for a warm bowl of goulash with a fresh apple strudel and just take your time to take in all the beauty.
This is just 1 of 12 mountain passes ridden on our GRAND-SLAM trip that crosses Austria, Italy, Slovenia. and Switzerland. 7 days of riding with your head in the clouds!
Literally and figuratively!
