Surely at some point, you have been curious to know a little more about the world of motorcycles and everything that is required to know to ride on the safe side. It is very pleasant for us to share with you a small note about how this world works. We offer tips based on our experience to provide more information and help resolve uncertainties. These notes are taken from a professional rider and years of being in the motorcycle rental industry in Ecuador. So this is the Safe way to ride a motorcycle: Consider both the positives and negatives of motorcycling to assess if it’s suitable for you, acknowledging its risks and rewards. That being said, there’s always the fun side of it too. THE POSITIVE The joy of having a faithful companion in your motorcycle, ready to go anywhere with just a helmet and gear. Get out on the road to clear your mind and reflect while riding. You can have experiences of all kinds and beyond everything, regardless of your gender, you have a huge community with whom you can also share, explore and live unique experiences.  Sharing the experience as a couple deepens the bond, feeling the wind and elements together, fostering an unbreakable connection. We can speak by experience with customers, that a few days riding has worked as the perfect therapy for a father and his offspring, couples, friends, and business partners. THE NEGATIVE While motorcycling is beautiful, prioritize safety by taking necessary precautions to ensure a fulfilling and secure experience. Since you are exposed, and many times there could be streets in poor condition that can cause a fall or an unexpected event that can cause a serious injury or a conflict with another driver. Without further ado, let’s get to the point: THE EQUIPMENT It is very important to have good equipment to safeguard your life in the event of some kind of accident, which is why we present the following. Although we have to emphasize that every item is important, we have listed them in what we believe is crucial downwards: HELMET You love to feel smart and that good-looking face, right? Despite the obvious, according to a report from crashstatsnhtsa.dot.gov, the percentage of head/face injuries in mild accidents could be simply avoided by the use of one. This being said, is very important to buy a good helmet with the proper certifications since serious injuries mostly involve head trauma. Even if it doesn’t look so cool nor free, we do recommend getting a full face or modular adventure helmet to protect that pretty face of yours, and thus avoid having skin grafts caused by an accident. Depending on where you live, you may choose to have a set of two visors, especially for those bright summer days, remembering to carry a second clear visor for dark hours. BOOTS It is important that you always wear them and that they cover your calf to avoid injuries due to twisting force when getting off the motorcycle, or during a slip with the bike. This last one is one of the most common falls, whether you lose the front (low side) or the rear tire (high side). JACKET Needless to say, the vital internal organs of your body are located in your torso, for this reason, protect them. The jacket acts as armor to cover your back as well as your elbows, arms, and shoulders. They come basically in two materials: leather and fabric. Usually, for adventure riding, the common type is fabrics, from which you have a huge variety and prices. Some are water-resistant, whereas others are fully breathable and waterproof. PANTS Sliding on cement is not fun for anyone, especially for those wearing jeans or shorts. I’ve sled myself at 90 km/h on asphalt, and my arse couldn’t be more grateful of having purchased a full leather suit, that saved my rear good-looking side. While sometimes we feel is an effort to wear them, you’ll never know when rain, cold, or an accident could hit your way. GLOVES Gloves will be part of your daily use or at least when you ride your motorcycle. They must be armored, they must have good grip, breathability, and water-resistant the least, to provide great protection to the elements and covering the upper part of the knuckles and coverage up to the wrists.

This is a piece of a blog written by one of our clients. Trip to Palmira on a motorcycle. James from California, the United States came to have an epic ride in Ecuador. We hope you enjoy it. “Naturally, every motorcycle trip is impressive. However, in this instance, I want to tell you about one of the most incredible experiences I had to go through. This began in Guamote in the province of Chimborazo at 6268 meters above sea level. Several people spoke to me about the Palmira desert, so I did not hesitate any longer and I decided to contact a tourism company specialized in the subject of motorcycles, being one of my passions, I would never put it aside. Around my search, I concluded that Ecuador Bike Rental by Sleipner and their services were the best choice, which, and until now, I still think was the best decision I could have made. Mini Sahara Desert We traveled for approximately 4 hours but it felt like time flies on a motorcycle, and even more on the thrill of the Suzuki DR 650 that, I was able to get with an important discount. The sand dunes loomed ahead, marking our entry to the desert; around us, lush pine trees greeted our arrival. We consulted the local community before touring the desert, ensuring a designated route to minimize disturbance to tourists. It was then that we began our trip through those pines that cover all over the place. After a while, we reached the small desert that only compares to the famous Sahara desert. Despite the shrinking desert, the pine forest surrounding the sandbanks adds to the impressive landscape during sunrise and sunset. If you’re into pro photography, this is definitely one of the spots to check in Ecuador. Return We had to return, but the adventure did not end there, we had to set up our tent, you already have the possibility of camping, and believe me, is a unique experience seeing the sky as never before, so clear that you even realize that the sky doesn`t have only one color tone, but it has a range of magenta and navy blue that together with the light of the stars manages to provide a spectacle to everyone who looks at it, at that moment you become ecstatic with beauty. Choose companions thoughtfully for a fulfilling journey, especially for motorcycle enthusiasts; riding with fellow bikers enhances the experience. | Visit Us | Trip to Palmira on a motorcycle
