Overland Expo EAST invites adventure motorcyclists to make their way to Arrington, VA, for a mid-autumn meet-up with like-minded riders and 4-wheeled travelers, too. Throughout the weekend, Overland Expo will have a variety of activities, classes, and presentations going on to match every level of adventure rider.
If you’re keen to test drive a new bike, there will be a variety of options on hand. Harley Davidson’s awesome crew will be setting attendees up on demo bikes at their booth. If you’re looking to go the electric route, Land Moto will have models available for demo. And if you’d rather get out on the trail, Yamaha will sort you out with a bike and a route.
Every Overland Expo is packed full of classes and presentations to help inspire and educate you for your future adventures. Amongst our programming schedule, you’ll find courses for adventure motorcycle enthusiasts of every skill level. A small sample of the variety of courses you can expect includes:
Adventure motorcycle tour guide, J.P. Prins, will cover bike setup, preparations, and vital items to bring on your next off-road motorcycle adventure in his session “How to BDR-Proof your Motorcycle.” J.P. will also teach a class on off-road rider positioning called “Sit When You Can – Stand When You Have To,” where he’ll teach attendees how to “conserve energy and increase endurance off-road.”
