Adventure Rider Magazine - August - September 2019

In this issue

Adventure Rider Magazine’s 36th issue kicks off with a blast through the incredibly exotic Phang Nga Bay in Phuket, Thailand. In that fabulous and beautiful location the Moto Guzzi V85TT is put to the test riding the jungles, mountain roads and even beaches of one of the world’s most breathtaking locations.
Just as exotic and enjoyable as Phang Nga Bay itself, Ducati’s 2019 Scrambler Desert Sled gets a pounding and cements its place as a magazine favourite.
Also, marking six years of Australia’s market-leading publication devoted to motorcycle adventure, are amazing photography and stories from the Filnders Ranges, the Simpson Desert, The Victorian high country and Tasmania.
From a technical perspective, steering dampers are demystified and BMW’s Rallye suit cops a hands-on flogging in some very tough conditions.
Celebrating six years, Issue #36 of Adventure Rider Magazine issue #36 has the adventure world at its feet – and on every glossy, beautifully presented page.
