WEEKEND WARRIORS
WEEKEND WARRIORS
AUTHENTIC AMSTERDAM
How much freedom does a motorbike bring? Well here we are, bags packed and strapped, and winding leisurely through B roads as the waning British afternoon whizzes past. By sundown it’s the three of us, on an impromptu weekend getaway, on an overnight ferry, with our Triumphs, all agreeing that last minute plans are the best with no schedules or limitations.
Amsterdam at dawn, and the Scrambler 1200 is handling the stunning city boulevards, beautiful narrow streets and quiet cobbled lanes with ease. There’s no waiting in traffic or working out public transport; just us and our bikes riding deeper and deeper into authentic Amsterdam, lighting up the city with every glorious passing minute. Why would anyone want to experience this amazing place any other way?
