Companies Attending and Bikes to Test Ride

Ducati

Ducati will be on site with over 35 bikes for you to try out both off-road and on road. The company are also sending over a crack riding and instruction team from Italy for the event. That’s a big commitment and undertaking.

Ducati will be setting up their own off-road circuit at the festival site and the road rides will explore the excellent tarmac to be found in the surrounding Oxford/Warwickshire/Northants countryside.

You can book your off-road and on road test rides at the Ducati stand.

Test bikes include the Multistrada Enduro for the off-road course, and the Multistrada 950 and Multistrada 1260 for on road.

Ducati are also bringing a coffee stand all the way from Italy.

TRF

The Trail Riders Fellowship (TRF) will be leading green lane rides and on-road rides plus organising the Scattered Navigation Event.

If you’ve any questions or need advice on riding green lanes TRF staff will be manning a stand at the festival and will be more than happy to help.

Booking green lane and road rides will be through ABR staff at the registration tent. Currently there are 14 green lane ride leaders.

Bike Hike

Pete Leach from Bike Hike will be on-hand to assist with any mechanical problems or if your bike packs up he’ll even take you both home.

Pete will have an LWB Sprinter on-site fitted out with a compressor, full range of tools, loading ramp and enough room to carry two large adventure bikes.

There'll be plenty of two wheeled attractions on hand with three on site trail courses, off-site green lane ride outs, tarmac ride outs, navigations events, test rides provided by Ducati, Triumph and Rally Raid plus a chance for some trail riding tuition from the Mick Extance Experience.
