Costa Rica is located in southern Central
America and is perfect for tourism and offroad motorcycle riding.
Costa Rica is a democratic country - the oldest democracy in Central
America and has no armed forces. Costa Rica's land mass is approximately
the size of West Virginia with the Atlantic Ocean (Carribean)
on the east and the Pacific Ocean on the west.
The country is bisected
by high mountains running north to south and this intermountain
region has numerous volcanoes - most dormant. The Arenal Volcano
is moderately active and is a favorite spot for tourists to see
mild volcanic eruptions on a daily basis. Costa Rica has lush
rain forests and jungle areas. On our tours, we ride through some
fantastic rain forest areas with numerous river crossings and
also high in the mountainous regions crossing to the Pacific Ocean.
Costa Rica has a population
of about 4.1 million people of diverse ethnic backgrounds who
are warm and friendly. During our ride we will visit numerous
towns and villages where we will stop to rest, get refreshments
and meals. These stops afford our riders the opportunity to get
acquainted with the local population. Don't be surprised to see
many mules and horses on our ride as these are used frequently
in the countryside for transporting people and goods.
Awaiting you is a beautiful
and inviting country for those interested in a combination of
spectacular enduro-style riding terrain and nature's beauty.
