Welcome to Touring Ride!

  The information received from Robert via email before our trip was good and very informative, this helped us to book the right day trip at a very short notice. Their... read more garage, from where we started, was easy to find, and is within walking distance (about 30 minutes) from Las Canterras beach, should you want to walk. Kris and Robert (father and son) welcomed us at the garage, where they keep their bikes, nice Harleys, for the trips. Completing the formalities, and getting the correct kit was quick and easy. We set off at 10am for 7 hour trip through the north of Gran Canaria, which included coffee and lunch stops. Kris does know the island very well and had a lot of information to share with us, one of the best ways to learn about the island, is a bike ride with him. We rode through Arucas (has it own rum distillery), Firgas (mineral springs and mineral water you will see on the shop shelves), Moya, Artenera (one of the highest villages with great mountain views), Tejeda, and Teror (with a world renown church - Basilica de Teror and also bottled spring water).
The whole day was very relaxing with nice roads to ride on and good company. Kris and Robert can do trips with 1-6 bikes at a time, and can also do week long and custom made tours. We highly recommend these guys for a fun way to see the islands. Although professionalism and safety comes first with them, they for sure know how the make it great fun. Many thanks Kris and Robert!

  We rode with Robert around the beaches & mountain, what a fantastic day! A perfect way to have a taste of the island for newcomers. Riding along the coastline up... read more the cliffs and through small mountain villages is absolutely relaxing.

Robert is a really friendly and attentive guy, we had interesting chats, and learned about the people, cuisine and culture of the island(s).

The bike was spotless, perfectly maintained and perfect for the island roads.

Definitely, we will repeat the experience next time we're around!

  One day drive in the mountains with Krister is best activity that you can find in Gran canaria. Route depends of skils and experience of the customer. It's hard to... read more imagine what kind of places there is to discover when you are at the poolside of the holiday resort. You have to go once and try.
Bikes are Harley Davisons so if you can not drive at home because ice and snow with your Harley there you can. And i carantee that you don't have the same feeling with rental car.

  I did a 50 day tour of Europe last winter and this was the absolute highlight of my trip. Gran Canaria is a biker's paradise and this tour was outstanding.... read more The tour is extremely professional and the motorcycles are in perfect condition. Krister is the best guide I have ever had and his love of the Canary Islands is quite obvious. I cannot recommend this tour strongly enough. If you have the opportunity to ride with Krister, do not miss it. It is a once in a lifetime experience. I really hope I will have the chance to return and do another trip with Krister.

  I booked this bike tour thinking that I would be riding in a group, but it turned out to be a private tour to the mountains. Krister was very helpful... read more and gave me advice how to get from Maspalomas to Las Palmas with a right bus. He collected me from the bus station.

The bike was in a perfect condition and clean. The biking gear were clean and in a good shape.

We headed towards the mountain in the northern part if the island. The roads were empty and mostly in a good shape. Those couple of bad places Krister gave me a pre-warning. The landscape is very beautiful and totally different from the southern part of the island. It was quite cool when the curvy road took as above the clouds that were above the ocean to the north from Gran Canaria. We stopped for coffee, lunch and many times just to look the great views. The day was quite long but worth the every minute of it.

I can fully recommend this to all fellow Harley bikers but why not for other bikers as well. 🙂

  If you have experience with motorcycles this tour is a no brainer. I booked this as a surprise for my husband and we both loved it! Spending the... read more day riding around the island with Krister was a wonderful treat. We were also able to meet Robert, Krister's son and business partner. These two individuals take great pride in their business. This is evident in the quality of the bikes as well as the jackets, gloves and helmets. I was so impressed and so happy that I booked the day with Krister. The island is amazing but you truly see all the beauty on a bike. I could have done this tour multiple days. If ever back on the island I would book this tour with Krister again in a heartbeat. Just to note, this was a stop on a cruise we were traveling on Krister picked us up at the port and dropped us back off. It was very convenient.

  Really enjoyed the ride - had an epic tour with Krister and Robert of the North of the Island (unfortunately I did not have more time to enjoy more days... read more touring with these guys).

The bikes were immaculate and well maintained, they quickly arranged a great tour to meet my short timescales, they were very welcoming and friendly, epically knowledgeable about the Island and very safe to ride with.

Gran Canaria is an epic place to enjoy a Harley Motorcycle Tour, the climate was superb and there is no better way to tour such a place than the freedom of a motorcycle.

Highly recommended!

  Nosotros hicimos la ruta en verano, mi chica me dió la sorpresa. Krister desde el principio ha tenido un trato inmejorable.
Días después de la ruta le mandé un email... read more para agradecerle ese día tan especial que fue para nosotros.
Es como si sales de ruta con un amigo, al poco de estar con él parece que le conoces desde hace tiempo, un gran motero.
No se puede decir nada malo de él ni de sus motos perfectas y limpias.
Volveremos a vernos en nuestra próxima visita o en alguna ruta de las que organiza en la península.

  We recently booked a motorcycle tour on Las Palmas Gran Canary Island with "Touring Ride". It was an awesome way to see the island, we went from the north... read more side of the island via freeway to the south side in order to avoid possible bad weather. We then returned via great back roads. The roads were not only good quality but fun to ride with a lot of curves and amazing scenery. I would highly recommend Touring Ride for anyone who wants to see Gran Canary Island, loves to motorcycles and wants to stay away from touristy traps. There is a video on You Tube, take a look, it will give you a good idea of the island and roads.
