Feel free on your adventure
You decide the style of the trip – Do you want to become safer on the gravel road or do you want to do it as a test ride before your first real camping trip?
We don’t teach you how to ride fast, we focus on giving you a safer foundation and greater margins for great experiences on the bike!

- When to stand up and when to sit.

DALEXS philosophy
Creating a route to ride can be done by many, but creating a complete experience with cohesion and added value that you remember with warmth, that is what we strive to create.
The Code of Conduct is the foundation of our activities and it describes how we behave on tour. In short, the Code of Conduct describes how we respect the roads we travel on and the residents in the areas where we move. We want to leave the smallest possible footprint behind us to create a sustainable motorcycle culture on the gravel roads.
Our strength is that you as a participant feel safe both socially and while driving.
The experience should be developing and exciting, so we continuously read the needs of the participants and adapt continuously so that everyone gets the level of excitement that is needed but without exceeding the level.
A non-prestige atmosphere is the key to interesting conversations and honest feedback. We have no need to show off, we want to meet you and create a nice experience.
When the participant rolls home after the tour, it should be with a smile from a nice experience and with new acquaintances, then we have succeeded!
