Riders must bring their own license (for motorcycles over 125cc) and have them on hand at all times on the tour. An International Motorcycle Rider’s License is recommended. It is critically important that the rider is able to safely handle the motorcycles we will be using on the tour. If the lead tour guide is not satisfied that a rider is at any time sufficiently competent to operate the motorcycle safely then the guide reserves the right to terminate the use of the motorcycle by the rider. No refund of the tour cost will be due.
