Ekke and Audrey Kok (CAN) 'Riding to the Great Wall'

Audrey and Ekke flew from Canada to Germany in July of 2012 and then rode east. All the way to the Great Wall of China. Who knew that you could simply ride to the Great Wall? Along the way they overcame a few logistical challenges, met wonderful people and had the adventure of a lifetime.

Zeljan Rakela (CRO) Ride around the world

Zeljan is an adventure rider from Split, Croatia. For the past 7 years he travelled on 5 continents, visited over 100 states, and rode over 270.000 km. And of course, everything on the same bike, BMW GS ADV1200 (2006). He will try to show us his journeys from his perspective. He will speak about all the good things that he experienced and all the troubles that he had during this interesting trip.

Vladimir Jovicic (SRB) Ride around the world

Three motorcycle drivers started from Montenegro and took the tough road around the world, struggling through beautiful nature and rough roads through Siberia and Road of Bones, and further through Alaska, Canada, USA and Europe for the greatest adventure of their lives!

Rodoljub Roki Rogosic (GER) From Germany to Morocco and back

For me, Morocco was like some mysterious place. I remember when I was a kid, Tito and Yugoslavia had really good relations with Morocco. I imagined those people as being from another planet, Boumedienn and Algeria, Nasser and Egypt, Gaddafi and Lebanon. I was really fascinated with those countries. After many years I met a lot of people from Morocco and realised that they are not from some other planet, they are like us. But the desire to visit this country never passed me. And here, after 30 or more years I fulfilled my dream with my family. This is a story of our journey.

Marko Blecic (MNE) Climbing Mt. Everest

From a small country like Montenegro it's not so often that people want to do some great thing. But there were a couple of them with one wish, to climb to highest peak on Earth, Mt. Everest. This task was really tough, but their drive to succeed was much higher. Marko will try to share with you their experience, their fears and their doubts, but also their feelings when they reached the summit.

Ivan Bozovic (MNE) Riding from Montenegro to NordKapp

In 2008, three men from Montenegro decided to move on a journey "a little" more north of their homeland. How much is "little"? Well, does Nordkapp sound north enough? Here comes the story of three adventurers on the road! 12,000 km, 23 days, 17 countries*, 3 engines and, obviously, 6 wheels.

Janko Vlahovic (MNE) Policeman on motorcycle

When I was a little boy, there were traffic police and motorcycles in my home town Kolasin. When I saw them, I finally realised what I really wanted. I wanted to become a policeman on motorcycle. As a policeman I started work in 1984, and in 1987 my dream came true - I get my first official motorcycle. And after 25 years I'm still living my dream, on highway on motorcycle.

Dane Medic (SRB) Ride to Iran

Travelling is an adventure only when boundaries are not set, when plans and routes are picked on the spur of the moment by your inner sense. Hints by locals on the next step to pick should, of course, be followed to make the most of your journey. Exploring the unknown, uncovering what is behind the next corner, be it cultures, natural beauties or unexpected individuals is the drive that took me out there. Take a peek on how trips I took to Japan through Siberia and Mongolia, as well as to Iran look from this perspective.

Christos Tzanos (Greece) Motodiscoveries round Turkey - 4 people, 4 different ways of how it feels like...
