Revving Up in Las Breñas

The sun was just beginning to cast its golden glow over the rugged landscape of Lanzarote as I found myself in Las Breñas, ready to embark on an adventure that promised the thrill of the open road. The Harley Davidson Tours of Lanzarote and Fuerteventura had been on my radar for a while, and as a former professional athlete turned travel writer, I was eager to experience the island’s roads from the seat of a Harley.

The moment I mounted the Harley, a sense of freedom washed over me. The engine roared to life beneath me, and I could feel the adrenaline coursing through my veins. Our guide, a warm and knowledgeable local, led the way as we set off through the vineyards of La Geria. The landscape was a tapestry of volcanic soil and lush greenery, a sight that was both surreal and breathtaking.

As we rode through the hills, the wind whipping past, I couldn’t help but feel a deep connection to the island. The Harley purred beneath me, a trusty steed on this epic journey. The camaraderie among the riders was palpable, each of us sharing a love for the open road and the thrill of the ride.

The Winding Roads of the North

After a brief coffee stop in La Santa, we continued our journey into the winding roads of the north. The route took us through Teguise, Los Valles, and Tabayesco, each turn revealing a new vista more stunning than the last. The road twisted and turned, challenging my skills and keeping my heart racing with excitement.

The highlight of this leg of the journey was undoubtedly the ascent to Mirador del Rio. As we climbed higher, the view of La Graciosa emerged, a breathtaking panorama that seemed to stretch on forever. It was moments like these that reminded me why I chose this path, trading the adrenaline of extreme sports for the thrill of discovery and storytelling.

Our guide shared stories of the island’s history and culture, adding depth to the experience. It was more than just a ride; it was an immersion into the heart of Lanzarote, a chance to see the island through the eyes of those who call it home.

The Final Stretch and “Petrol Talks”

As the day began to wane, we made our way to El Golfo, where the sea met the land in a dramatic display of nature’s power. The ride had been exhilarating, each mile a testament to the beauty and diversity of Lanzarote’s landscape.

Gathered at the end of the tour, we shared stories and laughter, engaging in what our guide affectionately called “petrol talks.” It was a chance to bond over our shared love of motorcycles and the open road, to relive the day’s adventures and plan for future ones.

This Harley Davidson tour was more than just a ride; it was an unforgettable journey through some of the most beautiful roads and viewpoints the island has to offer. For anyone seeking a unique way to explore Lanzarote, I can’t recommend it enough. The thrill of the ride, the stunning vistas, and the camaraderie of fellow riders make it an experience not to be missed. Harley Adventure
