WHAT TO EXPECT
-
All experiences are based on two people sharing one sidecar. One person rides the motorcycle and one person is the co-pilot in the sidecar itself. If you're both licensed riders you can swap seats throughout the day and if you don't have a license, you can just hop in the sidecar and enjoy the ride.
-
All guides are trained in sidecar riding and are OGA qualified motorcycle guides. Our guide will lead the day from another motorcycle or motorcycle and sidecar in front of you.
-
This is a small group experience with a maximum group size of eight people (four sidecars). We always have plenty of guides on hand to split the group based on ability and interests.
-
FUN! Our experiences are exhilarating and without a doubt the best way to adventure in the North East.
-
Safety first. We take safety really seriously and only travel at safe legal speeds. Sidecars are a thrill at 30mph! Plus we can provide helmets and other safety equipment if you don't have your own.
"Had a great day, battling across beautiful countryside and learning a great deal from Reece. We wouldn’t have missed it for the world and strongly recommend the Guys to anyone interested in bikes, outfits, countryside and learning new skills!"

DON'T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT....
"We were considering adding a sidecar to our bike but wanted to try it out first. Reece of the Sidecar guys gave us a day to remember, first class instruction followed by a memorable ride through the Northumbrian countryside. Reece was the perfect host, patient friendly and good humoured whilst taking great care of a couple of, shall we say, more mature bikers.
It was a great day out and we would recommend the experience to any biker as instructive and above all fun."
