Road & Track Motorcycle in Taiwan Motorcycle Experience
Your chance to ride thousands of curves on an exotic, misunderstood island - choose from a variety of modern motorcycles for this guided and supported ride through one of southeast Asia’s most intriguing destinations. Taiwan is a small Mandarin Chinese-speaking, democratic island off the coast of China. On this experience, you’ll ride from stunning coastlines up through gorges to mountain tops towering as high as 12,000 feet. You can expect to see tropical plants and wildlife, witness a different way of living, rejuvenate in volcanic hot springs, and be fed Taiwan’s best cuisines. Want to improve your bike handling skills while you’re here? Choose the option to add on a California Superbike School or track day at what Sig has described as the world’s grippiest race track. You can expect a high-level of service on this ride. Each day will be hosted, each ride guided and translation provided as you experience Taiwan’s roads, culture, and hospitality. As with all of Sig’s Rides, this is an all-inclusive week; it’s your time to relax, take in the sights, and not have to worry about a thing. Taiwan is well-known for dream-like views of mountain peaks above the clouds, a loving population and an endless list of delicious foods. Bringing a passenger or booking with friends and family on this trip is a great idea. Riding pace will always be within the speed limit and responsible for the conditions which allows riders of many skill level’s to enjoy. Finally, remember that Gerry Signorelli was a former professional road racer and coached riders around the world for the California Superbike School for more than ten years, feel free to ask him questions about how to improve your riding!
