Is that country safe?

It's probably one of the most popular questions anyone asks when considering where to head off on their adventures next. Truth is the answer is usually and almost certainly yes. However, that doesn't mean there are not things to be aware of and scenarios to plan for if things do go wrong. It pays to be well prepared for any eventuality and feeling safe on your adventures mean you're far more likely to enjoy them.

Which is why we're delighted to be having Tiffany Coates join us for bootcamp! She'll be delivering a masterclass on 'staying safe in the wildest places'. Tiff is a qualified self defence tutor and has ridden over 300,000 miles on a motorbike travelling across all continents. There is no one we think better suited to delivering this masterclass, it's one you definitely won't want to miss!

Early bird tickets are available for not much longer at £35pp. Learn more and check out what else is going at bootcamp via the LINK IN BIO.

@armchairadventurefest repost...

Ever set off on a big trip with a bike looking like this? 

We have and so did @sammanicom.author in 1992. Nearly 30 years of tinkering and re-packing on though and Sam knows just what to pack and how to do it. It's one of those things that can quite often get put to the bottom of the to do list before setting off on a big trip but making sure you've got the right gear, and that it's packed in the right way, is crucial!

Save yourself time and money on your next big trip and book yourself a ticket to Bootcamp where you'll hear Sam's talk about gear!

Fancy being able to take a photo of your adventures as impressive as this?

Yesterday's news was certainly not want anyone wanted but it seems there is definitely a light at the end of the tunnel and with any luck we should be able to get out there travel, explore and adventure ourselves in time for summer. To get people prepared we've launched The Armchair Adventure Bootcamp

If you've been to an The Armchair Adventure Festival event you'll know it's all about keeping peopled entertained during lockdown with inspirational stories of adventure. Bootcamp goes that one step further and is designed to make sure you're prepared to go on that adventure yourself and get the most out of your trip.

We cannot wait to be joined by some of the most exciting adventurers out there who will be sharing their skills with you from their time on the road. Photography is something everyone wants to be good at and we all want to capture the moment from our travels perfectly! We've met some unbelievable adventure photographers but none are quite as impressive or have the CV of Simon and Lisa Thomas of 2ridetheworld. The pair have been on the road for over 16 years and have captured their journey spectacularly. The above photo is just a taster of what they're capable of and we're delighted to share they'll be delivering a masterclass in adventure photography at Bootcamp.

Early bird tickets are now available for just £35, to learn more head to the LINK IN BIO

There are so many other amazing speakers already announced and many more to come too. Don't miss out on what is going to be over 16 hours of adventurous knowledge. It's going to be a cracking event and it's one we'd have jumped at the chance of doing if given the opportunity before setting off on our journey.

🥳Happy New Year Everyone!🥳

We hope you all had an absolutely cracking Christmas and New Year! We're absolutely buzzed for a much brighter and more adventurous 2021!

Our year has already got off to an absolute cracker as we've just found out we are actually in the @guinnessworldrecords book for 2021!! 😁
We of course knew we had the record for the longest journey by scooter and sidecar but we never imagined we'd actually find ourselves in the book!! It's a pretty good spot too, so if you're interested in reading up on the 'Epic Journeys' section in the Guinness World Record books then you'll find us front and centre on page 156!!

It does only give a brief insight in to our trip though, so if you fancy reading about it in more detail, then make sure you get yourself a copy of Our Ridiculous World (Trip) if you haven't yet via the LINK IN BIO!

Thanks so much to everyone who has already purchased a copy, we've had loads of really amazing messages recently from people who have had chance to sit down and read it over the Christmas period. We're really pleased you enjoyed it.

Once again, happy New Year guys!! It's not long until we can all get out there and start breaking records again!
