Feel the pulse of the open road. Hear the roar of your engine as it carries you through the raw, untamed beauty of France’s Auvergne region—a land of volcanic peaks, winding valleys, and stories etched in time. 

This isn’t just a motorcycle tour, this is a journey through history, adrenaline, and the soul of a nation. 

What to expect:

After disembarking the overnight ferry at Caen, the journey takes us to the legendary Le Mans 24-Hour Circuit, site of the world’s most iconic endurance race. Walk the hallowed tarmac and feel the weight of motorsport history with a visit to the legend’s museum.

After an overnight stop in the Loire Valley, we then ride into the heart of the Auvergne, where twisting roads carve through rugged mountains and ancient villages. 

Basing ourselves in Issoire, the next 3-days are centred around riding through the volcanic landscapes of the Massif Central which will steal your breath—sharp peaks, emerald valleys, and roads that beg to be conquered. 

Leaving Auvergne, we head north, visiting Oradour-sur-Glane, the haunting “martyred village” frozen in time. 

Here, the scars of World War II tell a story of resilience and remembrance and we walk among the ruins, where silence speaks louder than words, and history demands reflection.

After an overnight stop in a charming Loire Valley town, we head towards Caen and the overnight ferry, taking in Pegasus Bridge, the pivotal D-Day site where Allied forces turned the tide of war. 

Limited to just six riders for maximum camaraderie and freedom, you’ll be guided by two expert tour leads, this exclusive adventure ensures an intimate, unforgettable experience.

From heart-pounding switchbacks to soul-stirring historic stops, this is motorcycling at its most raw, real, and exhilarating.
