Join us for a special evening at the Touratech Rally—an intimate, chef-prepared dinner hosted by Backcountry Discovery Routes (BDR) and SheADV. This first-of-its-kind experience brings together members of the ADV community for good food, meaningful conversation, and connection.

This gathering reflects what BDR is all about—building friendships, sharing stories from the trail, and strengthening the community that supports backcountry riding. The evening will include familiar faces from both organizations, including BDR Co-Founder Paul Guillien, BDR Executive Director Inna Thorn, BDR Filmmaker Sterling Noren and his partner SheADV board member Eva Rupert, who first met at a BDR fundraiser and have been together ever since.

Your $125 donation supports the ongoing work of BDR and SheADV. With only 30 seats available, this is a unique way to kick off the weekend—gathered around the table with people who ride, explore, and care about the future of adventure motorcycling.
