It is this exact dynamic that offers you a thrilling motorcycle riding experience, unlike any other on the planet.

Kazim Uzunoglu
Istanbul, TURKEY
A magic occurs when together with MotoDiscovery founder, Skip Mascorro they begin to dream of riding the overlooked destinations, the forbidden and the intriguing. It all started in 2004 with our first 32 day journey throughout Kazim’s native Turkey. From there the collaborations continued with a controversial but thrilling ride into Iran. Then it was a seven country ride Around the Black Sea and more tours through the Adriatic. You should see what is on the drawing board! It all centers around Turkey and it is Kaz that delivers the emotion, the exotica and romance of that part of the world like no other.

Shahalam “Alam” Hussain
Dehra Dun, India
India. Is there a more exotic place on the planet than the subcontinent? We thank the late Patrick Moffat for urging us to look to the East, to India, Bhutan, Mongolia and Nepal. And while Patrick is no longer with us, his protégé then a teenager who once humped the luggage and worked to keep the Royal Enfield Bullets running, has taken the reigns and now so admirably represents MotoDiscovery in India and the region. Alam is special. He cares. His crew is extremely devoted and they share his passion. The challenges are great, the rewards are tremendous and along with Patrick’s son, Eric, have provided the kind of service and quality of care that is so consistent with the MotoDiscovery values. When it comes to India and the region, we simply say he is the best.
