Ad Ketelaars OffroadTrips (since 25 years) is a planner/organiser of offroad rides for two-wheelers.

In principle, the routes are laid out for light off-road/sport bikes. However, modified routes are available for allroad-like motorbikes. Rally riders as well as recreational riders know how to find their way to OffroadTrips. There are 37 different (full-day) routes available. These are routes in the Netherlands, Belgium and France. In the Netherlands, these are routes in North Brabant, mainly through the Dutch/Belgian border region. In Belgium, those are rides of hundreds of kilometres throughout the country. In France, you can go to Northern, Central, Southern France and Normandy.

These trips always involve navigating with a paper roadbook or a Tripy digital roadbook. If you do not have a Tripy, these can be rented from the organisation. Road books are used intentionally in rallying. You can put hazards and directions in there. This is extremely important to ensure the future of off-road sport. So if you dare to take on the challenge of spending a few days in the French bush, for example, or driving a beautiful ride in the south of the Netherlands, there are opportunities all year round. You always ride with your own group. You are not dependent on a guide. Just be your own boss and do what you want. The participation fee is still low-butget in 2024. That's 20 euros per participant per day for almost all rides. However, don't think the quality of what is on offer is of questionable quality.
