NC TOURING - Affordable Motorcycle Adventures

 
Easy Escape

The Easy Escape tours were developed to allow for a painless get-away from the work week. There is no need to take a much coveted day off in order to participate in one of our motorcycle tours. The premise is very simple: meet with your tour leader the morning of the ride and then... RIDE. Because your time is precious, we try to fill the day with great riding off the bat, and some great stops for either history, nature, or shoping options.

We will provide, transport and set-up your tent, sleeping bag, and pad. We'll even provide a pillow that's yours to keep after the tour. Because these are quick trips, we do not offer to carry any personal effectsr. Just throw a change of clothes and some cash in your saddle bags or back pack and go! It really is that easy!
