Lead Coach & Off-Road Expedition Guide My life has always been defined by two wheels. Starting my journey on the high-intensity tracks of motocross, I later transitioned to the punishing world of Hard Enduro, competing in the Expert and Pro classes. Today, I’ve translated that lifetime of competitive grit into a passion for teaching and exploration. As a professional off-road coach, I specialize in helping riders master the unique dynamics of heavy adventure (ADV) and dual-sport motorcycles. I don't just guide; I teach you how to ride with absolute confidence, control, and flow, no matter how rugged the terrain gets. Having led countless expeditions across the spectacular landscapes of Bulgaria, Albania, Greece, and Morocco, my focus is on delivering premium, instructional off-road tours. Whether you want to conquer technical mountain passes or handle your big ADV bike like a pro, I’m here to make sure you return from the trail a much stronger rider than when you started.
