The beginning…<\/h3>\n

With the help of my wife Marilyn and our children Brendan, Lachie, Scott and Alanna I started this company in 1989 after two men asked me where they could hire motorcycles.<\/p>\n

I took Hans and Ralf on a full day motorcycle adventure the very next day. That was in November 1989 \u2013 we began with two motorcycles & one race quad. In the summer of 1990 we added another two bikes and kicked off properly.<\/p>\n

From those humble beginnings we have grown to now be the largest Off Road Tour Company in the world, with over 100 machines, comprising buggies, dirt, quad & road bikes, offering Motorcycle, ATV and 4WD tours with our Toyota Landcruisers, from 1 hour tours to 12 day adventures.<\/p>\n

After more than 35 years of doing what we love we haven\u2019t lost our focus as we continue to offer real adventures for off-road enthusiasts of ALL abilities, from beginner to expert we will give you the ride of your life![\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
