With more ‘real-world’ experience than anyone else on the road today, Lisa and Simon Thomas have been described as ‘the Adventure rider’s riders’ and have spent over a decade traveling the globe on their two BMW motorcycles. Considered by many as the world’s leading Motorcycle Explorers, Lisa & Simon have been inspiring adventure since 2003, when they set out from their UK home on their incredible journey to ride to 122 countries and on all seven continents.

To date, the pair have traveled over 400,000 miles (643,737 km), through 78 countries, traversed 27 deserts, smashed four world riding endurance records, and are still on the road. Known for pushing the boundaries, the husband and wife team were the first to successfully traverse the Amazon Jungle unsupported, north to south on large capacity motorcycles.

As internationally renowned inspirational speakers, Lisa and Simon have shared their experiences and life lessons with over 100 live audiences around the globe, authored articles for top travel and motorcycle publications, and made over 40 international TV appearances, whilst being the focus of a BBC documentary.
