About this trip

THESE ARE TENTATIVE DATES, YOU CAN RESERVE YOUR SPOT BUT PLEASE DO NOT RESERVE AIRFARE UNTIL WE CONFIRM DATES. The Tuscan Tripinar is a week long trip to grow your riding and travel skills in Italy. Break into small groups of 3 to 4 riders according to desired speed so you can enjoy  FREEDOM OF PACE. No being frustrated by following some slow tour guide or being pushed beyond your limits trying to keep up. Every rider gets a radio com unit and a GPS with an array a great local routes. Tuscany is the perfect place to work on your riding skills. Lots of lonely scenic backroads with low traffic. Centuries of civilzation mean the region is criss crossed with roads serving the farms and vineyards connecting hill town after hill town. Lots of elevation changes and curves to keep you excited all day. Small towns with local cafes and fresh food prepared with typical Italian passion for life. The trip package includes access to Yamaha Champions Riding School Champ U online course to help you prepare. YCRS certified coaches join the trip to give you live feedback on the road. Your skills grow exponentially here as you take on challenges no parking lot drill can offer and no race track can replicate. A coach right behind you can see when it's time to add more weight to that inside peg. We can help you time the rear brake pressure on the hairpin so your bike just pivots around like magic. We'll be there to cheer you on as things start coming to together and your confidence increases along with your pace. It's so f@cking fun!


How does this work?

We arrive in Rome. We encourage you to come a day or two early to let your luggage catch up. Explore the "Eternal City". We have loads of tips on what to do in Rome. From how to do the must see sites right but more importantly learn how this modern city integrates it's epic past with modern life. Then we are off to Tuscany. You'll be placed in a group of 3 or 4 riders according to your desired pace. Everyone has com units and a GPS. No one will get left behind. Your squadron supports each other. Your instructors will keep track of everyone on What'sApp and we are ready to lend of hand if you need it... but you'll learn, you can do this. Our coaches are standing by to work with you on your ride and give you real time feedback on your riding skills. Our hotel in Tuscany is in a small resort town, not a tourist trap. You'll navigate Italian life and find the tasty spots. Each day in Tuscany there will be an array of routes for you to choose from. Will you dodge the tourists around the famous towers of San Gimignano? Don't worry we know where the hidden motorcycle only parking is located. Maybe you are a MotoGP fan and always wanted to visit Valentino Rossi's home town of Tavulia? We know where you can look down on his ranch and the VR46 training ground. Chase the curves of the Chianti region and walk the circuit of the Palio in Sienna. Grab an ice cream in the little plaza in Vinci and sit at the feet of one of Leonardo's greatest sculptures. We encourage you to create your own routes before we go. You'll have instruction and homework before you go that will allow you to create your own dream day. The hill towns of Anghari, Pienza, Volterra and Montalcino call, which ones will you go to? Leod Escapes has been doing tours in Italy since 2015, so we have some favorite spots. Our hidden lunch stop in Radicofani where no tourist bus can go. The local rider gathering spots like Passo del Muraglione or Lo Scoiattolo (The Squirrel) bar and gelato spot high above lake Trasimeno. Whenever we do tours in Italy people often come to "see" but they return home with memories of places, people and experiences they didn't expect. What will be yours? At the end of the week we'll return to Rome on another fun route before you fly home. You'll return home with not only great memories of Italy but increased riding skills and probably some new traveling skills.

Itinerary

Day 1
Welcome to Rome

We always recommend you come a day or two early just to make sure your luggage catches up to you and to adapt to the time difference. Plus who can't use a few extra days in Rome. Grab a cab from the airport and we'll see you at the Hotel. Let us know if you want to come early and would like some extra night reserved for you. You'll get lots of local tips on Rome from us as well so don't worry. You'll have great ideas on how to walk off that jet lag... or maybe go Roma style and rent a scooter. Arrival day we'll meet for a riders meeting and get the com units sorted out. That night we'll head to one of our favorite local trattoria's that makes the best Cacio e Pepe.

Reviews

For a rider like me, this was the trip of a lifetime. I am a 35+ year motorcycle rider, but have never ridden Europe before. In fact, I had never been outside the English-speaking world prior to this trip. This tour is the perfect introduction to international motorcycling. We traveled primarily in Germany and northern Italy and I was able to get by with English without any trouble, but picked up just enough German and Italian to feel a little more at home. While the point of this tour is to learn how to do it on your own, the tour guides are quick to help with anything you might need. The BMW motorcycles are excellent and extremely well maintained. The riding can be challenging, but is quite manageable for a rider with a few years experience, and an interest in improving their skills. Riding with folks with a similar mindset, I made some friendships that I will last for many years. I found the whole package to be excellent value for the money. If you are considering trying international moto-touring I can think of no better way to start.

What a wild ride! This was a fantastic trip. Motorcycles really are the best way to see the world. This is a very sporting tour, possibly not for the interstate rider. I am certainly a better rider now and I thoroughly enjoyed the back country riding that we were guided through. Although this was the first run of Castles and Curves our guides were flexible and were able to overcome the problems faced (invisible flying cucumbers one might say). This was a genuine adventure and I loved it all!
By Dustin Z for 2023 Castles & Curves Training Tour on Jul 26, 2023
This trip was exceptional value for the money. This was my first international motorcycling trip and I can't think of a better introduction to motorcycle travel; I feel I now know enough to do this myself someday. The accommodations were great, especially the hotel in Italy. The routes were appropriately challenging for my skill level and I know I'm a better rider as a result. The bikes were well-maintained and the process of picking up and returning them was seamless. My ideal vacation. I highly recommend!

Leod escapes provided a wonderful dolomite training tour from providing invaluable travel trips to the motorcycle rentals, - exciting routes to explore, and comfortable accommodations, exposure to great local food and sights. They gave us the training to be able to come back on our own but we would love to do another tour with them.
