We had booked a one-day trip including tourguide - but it was even more: Kris took us from Las Palmas through the North to the Northwest of Gran Canaria -... read more then we left the coastline behind us and we went up on tiny & curvy but well paved mountain raods to the inner areas of the island. Short stopps for picture taking, a coffee and a lunch break were included. Kris is a perfect rider to visit off the beaten path roads, get great impressions of the island and have a safe Feeling all day long. The bike was in perfect shape as both - father & son (Kris and Robert) run a family business with great passion and 'the big-twin-heart'. Thank you for the ride on Gran Canaria!

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 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. 🙂

Two of travelled from Australia to Gran Canaria for business. Our client in Pas Palmas rides a Harley and suggested we hire hire a couple of bikes and go... read more for a ride. We ended up arranging a full day tour with Krister of Touring Ride. We covered around 170km of varying roads travelling from Las Palmas down the east coast on great highway roads, through tourist towns, partly up the west coast then across the top of the island up to almost 2,000 meters altitude. Our day lasted around 7 hours and Krister was a fantastic host and guide. He looked after us and fed us well.
The bikes were in pristine condition, the scenery and roads were fantastic and the weather was just perfect. The posters and photos in Krister's workshop/garage shows he is a long-term true Harley Davidson enthusiast.
If you can ride a big bike and would like a day to truly remember for all the right reasons don't hesitate to contact Krister and Robert and book a tour - you wont regret it.

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!

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.
