Adventure Bike Rider

Adventure Bike Rider

Over the years, our website has evolved into the largest adventure riding community in the UK. When we factor in our social media followers, ABR stands as the premier authority and voice for adventure riding on a global scale. ABR was created for three main reasons: my enduring love for travel and motorcycles, the noticeable gap in the UK motorcycle media for a publication dedicated to the growing adventure bike market, and a motorcycle accident that limited my ability to pursue another passion of mine – mountain climbing.

    As adventure bikers, we all like a bit of off–road action on our adventure bikes, even if most of us spend the vast majority of our time riding on road. After all, that’s why the Bridgestone Trail at the ABR Festival is so popular. With over 50km of prime Warwickshire trails just beyond the front of your tent, it’s the perfect chance to find out just how competent you and your bike are on the rough stuff and hopefully, just how enjoyable off-road riding really is.

    Crash bars and bash plates are popular accessories for adventure motorcyclists because they help protect vulnerable parts of your bike from expensive repair bills and the potential of trip-ending damage. But scratches and grazes are harder to protect against, whether you’re riding next to foliage on a green lane, behind someone that’s flinging loose stones from their rear wheel, or have a tumble in the carpark.

    Ponder this: why don’t you see more Tiger 1200s on the road? Perhaps you do, but I’ve been keeping my eyes peeled while living with Triumph’s flagship adventure bike over the past few months, and I’ve been left baffled at how few big Tiger riders I’ve given a cheery wave too as they’ve passed. I’ve seen countless big GSs on my travels, along with plenty of Africa Twins, Multistradas, and KTM Super Adventures, but I can count on one hand the number of Tiger 1200s I’ve come across.

    I’m not always the most proactive when it comes to maintenance, and I find myself missing chain lubrication and adjustment intervals more often than I should. If the chain’s still on the bike, that’s good enough for me, even though I know that a poorly lubricated chain is slowly destroying itself, damaging the sprockets, and potentially waiting to snap and cause a serious issue for me while I’m riding.

    The Arai Tour-X 4 has long been one of our favourite adventure helmets here at ABR, and thanks to Nomadic Knights, you’ve got chance to win one. There’s a lot we love about the Tour-X 4. It’s exceptionally comfortable, aerodynamic, and quiet for touring, and it has plenty of ventilation and a big, solid peak for riding off-road.
