Welcome to my Enduro journey blog.
Hard Enduro Paradise – MICHES
After a while of riding Honda XR 650 and Africa Twin 1100 it was a damn fine feeling to mount a 300cc motorcycle. I recently had 2 amazing experiences onboard the Hondas in respectively the Dominican Republic and Colombia but man how fun it is to ride Enduro! This shit never gets old! I took
Day 9 of Travelling the DR
This was the day I’d been waiting for… This was the day that inspired me to do this whole trip and man did it not disappoint! Riding through Villa Anacoana – the first Haitian village in the borderland – was one of the scariest things I’ve ever done. And probably without any reason at all
Day 8 of Travelling the DR
This dominican coast line though… Really cool to see the Playa Rucia, El Morro and finally make a dent on the stretch from one coast to another. The video packs much more entertainment than the pics, so if you haven’t seen it already, here’s the link.
Day 7 of Travelling the DR
Very few pictures were taken today but tons of video! The day started in Cabarete where I once helped some guys make a Hard Enduro race called Machete and finished in beautiful and super quiet oceanside village called La Isabela. https://youtu.be/MVY5A7PColo Born in 1985 in Denmark and started riding in 1995 on motocross tracks, but had

3 years ago, when I was camping at a festival called Quelonios on the beach “El Valle” someone told me that Shakira owned this amazing house on the top of the hill. For some reason I never forgot it and I wanted to find the road to that house and check it out for myself…
Day 4 of Travelling the DR
On day 4 of this trip I made it from Bayaguana all the way to las Terrenas and on the way I got to talk to an 82 year old farmer, fly my drone over an epic bridge, ride around on the peninsula of Samana and generally just enjoy the day. If you didn’t see
Day 3 of Travelling the DR
Once again, I realised that my google drawings weren’t as good in real life as on the drawing board. Eventually I had to drop my mission of crossing through Parque de los Haitises the offroad way, turn around and go the predictable route. Not to say what I intended to do wasn’t possible – just
Day 2 of Travelling the DR
Day 2 of travelling the DR was the day where I finally found the round mountain (Montaña Redonda)! If you saw my video from day 1, you’d know that I messed up with the navigation and ended up in Higuey but on day 2, it finally happened and it was so worth it. The view
