🔵 PROUDLY SUPPORTED BY YAMAHA AUSTRALIA
🔥 TWO DAYS OF RIDING, LEARNING AND TAKING YOUR ADVENTURE SKILLS TO THE NEXT LEVEL!
🏍️ THIS EVENT IS OPEN TO ALL BRANDS AND MODELS OF ADVENTURE MOTORCYCLES!
Ready to take your adventure riding to the next level?
The team at RideADV has years of experience across all areas of motorcycling, specialising in adventure riding. We were the first to launch our Introduction to Adventure Riding Training Rides years ago, and since then we’ve continued developing our training events to help riders build their confidence, improve their technique and get more out of their adventure motorcycles.
Following the success of our original Introduction to Adventure Riding Series, we developed the Intermediate Introduction to Adventure Riding Series for riders looking to progress beyond the basics and take on more challenging terrain.
We love sharing our knowledge and are passionate about growing our sport. With the continued support of Yamaha Australia and our other valued sponsors, we’re proud to present another fantastic Intermediate Introduction to Adventure Riding event for 2027.
🌲 WHY WE’VE CHOSEN TAREE FOR 2027!
For this event, we’re heading to Taree on the beautiful NSW Mid North Coast, and there’s a very good reason we’ve chosen this location!
The country surrounding Taree offers some outstanding adventure riding opportunities. With extensive forest trails, winding gravel roads, challenging climbs and descents, rutted tracks and constantly changing terrain, it’s the perfect environment for riders looking to take their skills to the next level.
The wider Manning Valley and surrounding forest country provide the variety of riding conditions we want for this more advanced introduction to adventure riding.
This isn’t simply about covering kilometres. It’s about learning how to handle your adventure motorcycle when the terrain becomes more demanding, understanding what your bike is doing underneath you and developing the skills and confidence to tackle more challenging tracks safely.
Our RideADV crew will be there to demonstrate techniques, share their experience, answer questions and help riders improve throughout the weekend.
We’ll be working on the skills that make a real difference when you’re out exploring remote country on a fully loaded adventure motorcycle.
🔥 MORE CHALLENGING TERRAIN. MORE RIDING TECHNIQUES. MORE CONFIDENCE.
That’s exactly what our Intermediate Introduction to Adventure Riding Series is all about!
