Basecamp is the exciting new ‘Fly-Ride’ moto concept set to make riding the greatest roads in Europe more accessible & affordable than ever.
Created by an experienced team who have mapped out decades of epic riding routes, Basecamp members can securely leave a bike at any of their European locations and fly in without the need for the boring, expensive two-day rides to the Alps and back.
Every year, thousands of bikers pack up their bikes and head to Europe to take advantage of the incredible roads and rides on offer across the Alps and Pyrenees. However, anyone who has done the trip knows that the journey there and back takes several days with long, arduous motorway stretches. Not only does this increase costs with additional hotels, fuel, ferries & tolls, but it also inflicts wear, tear and depreciation on the bike. An obvious waste of time and money.

Created by Steve Mason, founder of the Cannonball Bike Run motorcycle rally (now in its 21st year), Basecamp encompasses three locations: a central motorcycle storage facility near Milan, Basecamp 1 located at 700m elevation in the Italian Alps and Basecamp 2 near Biarritz that serves the French and Spanish Pyrenees.
Basecamp is unashamedly intent on reinventing the traditional motorcycle holiday and allows for ‘no compromise’ machinery, ie bikes less suitable for long haul touring such as Supermoto or ‘sticky tyre’ Superbikes!
By taking care of storage for motorcycles, riding gear and even sharing the cost of airport transfers with other members, Basecamp is transforming how modern riders maximise their leisure time.
With low cost airlines now more affordable than ever, Basecamp members fly in and ride the best roads again and again throughout the year, all for less than the usual cost of a single commercial motorcycle tour.
More than just motorcycle storage, Basecamp members become part of a community of like-minded riders who enjoy additional benefits such as a recommended route book library, free Kurviger navigation app, event invitations, clubhouse access and, coming on stream in 2026, accommodation facilities at all of their European locations.
With three tiers of membership, 125, 250 & 500 (remember those?), riders can be part of the community from the outset and upgrade as required as other elements come online.
A limited number of discounted launch-price memberships are now available from just €7 per month, which alongside the core benefits, also provide access to a range of add-on services including motorcycle transportation, moto concierge, maintenance and more.
