Join me for Part 2 of the Hard Alpi Tour. This is one of the longest and most scenic off-road rallies for larger adv style motorcycles in Europe. This second part of the adventure is full of stunning views and intense emotions as we ride through the Alps of Northern Italy. Watch as I fall asleep on the bike, eat about 20 eggs for breakfast and battle to the finish line in an attempt to become the first to ever enter and complete the race on a Harley Davidson Pan America.

Riding in a team of three with hubby Ruckymonster [riding a Harley-Davidson Pan America] and bestie Anika [riding my Honda CRF 450 RX].

About the Harley-Davidson Pan America:
How heavily did I have to modify the Harley-Davidson Pan America to make it handle a 36 hour Hard Alpi Tour Extreme 780km event? Here you go:
Changed the rubber to my favourite adv Michelin Motorcycle Anakee Wilds for the best traction
Added OEM Harley LED lights on front bars
Strapped on Mosko Moto Reckless 40 panniers for my sleeping and bivi bag, and road snacks
Screwed on a Peak Design phone mount
Downloaded the Harley navigation app to load the events GPX file straight to the bikes screen
Paired up our Cardo Systems intercoms for the ultimate banter
Carried charging cables and power banks to recharge lights / phones on the road
Turned off HD traction control and selected off road mode
Then...it was all down to me!
