Welcome to Touring Ride!

  I was wondering before the trip that how in earth a service like this can get just 5* feedback. I don't wonder anymore. We had awesome days with Krister. First... read more day we spent on the curvy roads, a lot of sightseeing places to stop and enjoy. Krister always told more info about the places as well when we had stopped our bikes. And the motorcycling itself, that was fun! We have had winter in Finland, no driving since early October....So it was NICE! And weather conditions in Gran Canaria were excellent.
Not to forget that we had lunch and 3 other stops for coffee or other soft drinks. Lunch was also very good in that restaurant. Fish soup, chicken cordon bleu and tiramisu.
Second day Krister was free so he joined to have lunch tapas with me in the city of Las Palmas. We had long discussions and a lot of fun. After all I can say that if you have a possibility to book the HD touring, DO IT. You will not regret it afterwards....

Thanks about your super hospitality and nice touring experience!
Cheers

  El pasado sábado dia 11 de octubre fue uno de los días mas especiales de mi vida, Touring Ride me ayudo a conseguir hacer realidad el sueño de una persona... read more muy especial para mi, montar en una Harley, me puse en contacto con ellos y contrate una ruta por la zona centro Norte de Gran Canaria. Yo sabia que seria algo genial pero sin duda superaron con creces mis expectativas. Una ruta de medio día amena, apasionante por los rincones más bellos de mi tierra y sobretodo con el placer de contar con personas con un trato sin igual, krister y su hijo Robert nos trataron en todo momento como familia, nos hicieron sentir cómodos, seguros, su dominio de las H.D. Su experiencia, su trato cordial y amigable hicieron de ese día un día inolvidable y se forjó una amistad que sin duda perdurara en el tiempo.
Una experiencia cien por cien recomendada que sin duda repetiré. TODOS LOS DETALLES PENSADOS, una ruta adaptada al cliente y la confianza de estar en manos de profesionales. Solo me queda decir GRACIAS!!!! Aquí ya tienes dos amigos sergio y lorena

  I was on the Gran Canaria Island for work , not sure if I would have any days off . I managed to get a day off and looked into... read more a Motorcycle tour , Harley Davidson of course . This was an experience I'll remember til the day I die even though I've been riding for 35 + years in the USA and even Hawaii . Krister took us thru some of the mountains and beaches I've ever seen . Krister is also an amazing man to talk with and generally hang around . The towns we stopped at and drove thru were fantastic . Lunch was also a real experience . But the riding was truly a unique experience . The Harley's my co workers/friends rode were in the best shape with low miles . All I can say is MAKE THE TIME to go on one of Krister's tours .... you will never forget it !
Thanks Krister . Bill O'Brien,Jr , Baltimore ,Maryland , USA

  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!

  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.

  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.

  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.

  it has been a perfect day with Robert, I highly recommend to to the tour with Touring Ride, realy curvy roads...

  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!

  Great roads, bikes, food and company.
Must give 10+ points.
Thank you for the absolutely fantastic day.
