Break into small groups of 3 to 4 riders according to desired speed so you can enjoy  FREEDOM OF PACE.

Trip package includes access to Yamaha Champions Riding School Champ U online course to help you prepare. YCRS certified coaches join the trip to give you live feedback on the road. Your skills grow exponentially here as you take on challenges no parking lot drill can offer and no race track can replicate. A coach right behind you can see when it's time to add more weight to that inside peg. We can help you time the rear brake pressure on the hairpin so your bike just pivots around like magic. We'll be there to cheer you on as things start coming to together and your confidence increases along with your pace. It's so f@cking fun!

What else will I learn?

You'll learning routing, navigation and secrets to picking a good hotel in Europe. You'll pick up cultural tricks, how to deal with the language barrier and how EU roads are different. The point of the Tripinar is to give you the skills to be able to ride Europe on your own. You are a motorcycle rider, international travel should not intimidate you.

Europe's most beautiful city

Your arrival and departure city is Vienna, the most beautiful city in Europe. You lost Paris! Vienna is an international hub of vibrant culture from an old empire to a modern country. We encourage you to come a few days early or stay late for a few days after and explore this gorgeous city. An array of low mileage, well maintained BMW motorcycles are waiting for you across from our hotel south of the city center. Reserve the model best for you early. Need some fresh riding gear? Vienna is a good place to go shopping for quality protective gear at a fair price. European standards paired with a good exchange rate mean good value for you and gear with a story. Vienna's subway and street car system is substantial. You'll learn to use it like the locals do. Vienna's selection of cuisine is wide and we encourage you to look for foreign flavors and get local Austrian favorites once you get on the road.

Itinerary

Day 1
Touchdown Vienna

Your tour hotel is south of the city center and across the street from your rental bike. If you want to come in early to enjoy Vienna we suggest staying in the old center. We will be there so please join us and see how we "do" Vienna. We have several hotels to recommend for early arrival or staying after. We will get together for a riders briefing and probably all head to a local pub for dinner. Get to sleep early, we've got a great but rather long day ahead.

I had a great time on the Core of Catalunya tour. The owner of Leod Escapes, Cat, was with us the whole way through, helping to facilitate and guide. He helped make sure we were informed of important details and that everyone was making it safely to the destinations. A big bonus of this tour was having Michael “HeyNow” Henao from Yamaha Champions Riding School on the tour. He’s not only a great guy, he brought the insights of a YCRS instructor to help us improve our riding while on the tour. We also had a wonderful local guide, David, with a deep and personal connection to Catalunya, riding, and racing. David brought us on the most amazing twisties I’ve ever ridden. He also shared stories of riding and racing that gave me an unforgettable appreciation for what this place represents in the world of motorcycles. The food was exceptional. We ate at some hidden gems throughout the region that would’ve been near impossible to find without someone familiar with the area. All of the hotel stays were also very exclusive. We stayed in beautiful locations only locals usually know about, far from tourist-heavy areas. This also allowed us to see amazing parts of Spain I didn’t even know existed. To top it off, we ended the tour with 3 days of riding on the Catalunya MotoGP circuit with Racing School Europe. That was incredible. Speechless. Overall, this was a life-changing tour, my riding has improved drastically, and I can’t wait to do the next one with Leod Escapes!

Our recent tour through Spain was my 2nd experience with Leod Escapes. The group dynamic was again exceptional, fostering a sense of camaraderie that made the journey more enjoyable. Our guide, David, was not only a skilled rider but also an effective communicator, ensuring the entire group's safety while keeping the pace up. We also had Michael from YCRS help build on the foundations learned at Champschool, which made me feel like an accomplished canyon rider by the time we ended the trip. The meticulously planned routes perfectly blended challenging twisty roads and spectacular landscapes--every mile was an adventure. Our time at Cataluyna, in particular, was a highlight, pushing my riding abilities to new limits and providing an unforgettable 3-day track experience. (Be prepared to buy an additional set of slicks!) The accommodations were comfortable and the food was delicious, offering a well-deserved rest after a day of riding. However, incorporating more free time in the late afternoons would allow riders to explore local towns and immerse themselves in the area at their own pace. If you're a motorcyclist seeking an unforgettable adventure, I highly recommend this tour. It's the perfect opportunity to challenge yourself, explore a beautiful country, and connect with like-minded individuals.

There are no words that could properly encompass this trip. To say it was a surreal, and absolutely indescribable experience would be an understatement. I knew it would be epic, the trip most dream of, but it completely exceeded every expectation. Could not POSSIBLY have imagined it better. Blown away. Thank you Leod Escapes, Cat and Nancy.

EPIC ADVENTURE! Where can you meet like minded track junkies and tour around through some of the BEST TWISTIES in Spain 🇪🇸 and then ride 3 days on a moto go track!!? Leod Escapes that's where! Attacking the 365 turns on the way to the coast 2up, espresso breaks, perma grin, jumping into the Mediterranean Sea, riding a S1000rr on a MotoGP track with some of the fastest instructors I've ever met video taping and improving your lap times, food out of this world, wife happiest I've ever seen.....well these are just some of our highlights! My 3rd tour with Leod Escapes and they seem to just keep getting BETTER! AMAZING!
