Clothing.
- It’s best to bring your own gear, but if you don’t have them, let us know and we’ll try to provide rental gear.
- Always show up for the rides wearing long pants and closed shoes, preferably boots. Flip-flops and sneakers? Not your best choice.
- When it comes to dressing for the weather, pack according to the season and how much cold or heat you can handle. Our advice? Bring extra layers—you can always take something off if you get too hot. It’s way better to be a bit warm and peel off a layer than to be cold and have nothing to put on.
- If you’re bringing your own gear, make sure it’s in good shape before hitting the road.
Notes.
- Travel insurance information: It is essential to have medical insurance that covers this type of activity, personal accidents, medical expenses, and repatriation. If you don’t have one, Toro Biker can help you arrange it.
- Routes, activities and hotels might change depending on the time of year, weather conditions, or the state of the roads.
- If the day route gets canceled, Toro Biker will offer alternatives to keep the adventure going.
- We reserve the right to remove anyone from the route if their behavior or condition puts their safety—or the safety of the group—at risk.
