Returning To Europe

Their journey took them through some of Spain's most spectacular riding areas.

Why Buddy & Jan Were Chosen Again

The Retired to Ride Touring Awards recognise more than distance travelled.

They celebrate passion, courage and the willingness to keep exploring new roads.

Buddy and Jan returned to Europe because one adventure was not enough.

They showed that curiosity has no age limit and that the greatest journeys are often the ones still waiting ahead.

Two Years. Two Adventures. One Passion.

From their first European motorcycle experience in 2024 to their return journey in 2025, Buddy and Jan represent everything the Retired to Ride community celebrates.

Adventure. Friendship. Exploration. The freedom of the open road.
