Join four British veterans on a Morocco motorcycle adventure from Chefchaouen (Blue City) to Fez, across the High Atlas on the legendary N9, with film-set magic in Ouarzazate and a finale charging into Marrakech. We ride Ducati Multistradas through Rif Mountain sweepers, explore medina alleys and tanneries, tour Atlas Film Studios (Gladiator, GoT) and the UNESCO-famous Aït Ben Haddou, and share practical tips on Ramadan travel, SIMs, money, safe bike parking, and navigating chaotic old towns without losing your kit—or your sense of humour.

Expect military and life stories with veteran banter, respectful history, and real-world moto logistics: heated gear in sub-zero mornings, smooth Moroccan tarmac, donkeys on apexes, and why we chose café au lait over mint tea (sorry, Morocco!). Shot in 4K with drone and 360° helmet cams, this episode blends travel documentary, rider’s guide, and memoir—perfect for fans of rugby, skiing, BAOR Germany nostalgia, classic and modern bikes, and unapologetic adventure.

Ride with four British veterans from Portsmouth to Morocco via Santander, the Camino de Santiago at Hospital de Órbigo, and a two-night deep dive in Porto—from Castelo do Foz to the atmospheric cellars of Taylor’s and Graham’s. We trace Wellington’s Lines of Torres Vedras at Fort St. Vincent, wander Évora’s golden walls, and stand beneath the monumental Amoreira Aqueduct at Elvas (UNESCO) before throttling south to Algeciras, ferrying to Tangier Med, and climbing into Chefchaouen—the legendary Blue City.

Shot in 4K with drones and helmet 360° cams on Ducati Multistradas, this episode blends history travel (Peninsular War forts, aqueducts, citadels) with real-world moto logistics and soulful moments—pilgrim suppers, port tastings, and that first couscous after sunset.

Real military & life stories from British veterans: rugby, skiing/Telemark, classic motorcycles, sailing, and BAOR Germany (’70s–’10s)—told with humour, history, and heart. Expect 4K adventures, restorations, and behind-the-scenes banter.

Strap in for a veteran’s blend of military and life stories—from the British Telemark Championships to a soul-stirring Dolomites tour and the launch of our next motorcycle adventure. We road-trip in the X5 loaded with classic skis (cable boots and all), then hit ten days of Telemark racing: Classic, Sprint and the crowd-favourite Parallel Sprint (photo finish!), plus the brutal Mountain Race Relay. Vinka & Marlin chase podiums, the “boys” hold solid mid-table, and the oldest team on the hill still finds the steps—proof that experience and grit count.

Recovery equals paradise in Corvara in Badia: Sella Ronda laps, the magical Hidden Valley horse-tow, and alpine après worthy of a medals parade. Then we swap ski edges for throttles: winter testing in Spain with Ducati 1199/1098/899/749, MV Agusta, and Manx Norton—full drone and 360° action-cam coverage, paddock camaraderie, tyre-shredding laps, and a surprise BSB paddock invite. Finally, we kit up the Multistradas, roll onto the Portsmouth → Santander ferry, and kick off our Morocco overland series—mountains, desert pistes, souks, and veteran banter captured in cinematic 4K.
