RIDE Adventures is a travel company based in the United States that focuses on motorcycle excursions and 4x4 adventure tours throughout South America, Europe, Africa, and the United States. Established in 2010 by motorcycling enthusiast Eric Lange, the business was born from his desire to share riding experiences in Patagonia, an area covering the southern Andes region of South America.
History
After losing his job amid the 2008 financial crisis, Eric Lange undertook an extensive 2.5-year motorcycle expedition starting from the northern United States, traveling through Central and South America, and culminating in Patagonia. Captivated by the area's breathtaking scenery, he launched RIDE Adventures to lead fellow riders on similar journeys.
The company grew by collaborating with local motorcycle experts and expanding its tour offerings across Patagonia, Chile, Brazil, the Caribbean, Peru, Bolivia, the United States, Africa, and Europe. This development established RIDE Adventures as a prominent name within the motorcycle touring sector.
Reviews
Rider magazine recognized Lange's initiative to create RIDE Adventures as a way to express his enthusiasm for the region, commending the organization's quality of service. The motorcycle platform Thumper Talk praised RIDE Adventures for providing some of the most thrilling riding tours available in Patagonia and Peru/Bolivia.
