Posted by [Eric Lange](https://www.rideadv.com/ride-adventures-tour-and-rentals-blog/author/eric-lange) on December 25, 2013 ![Eric Lange](https://www.rideadv.com/hs-fs/hub/43106/file-2225857620.jpg) Since riding his KTM 950 Adventure down to South America in 2008 and launching RIDE Adventures in 2010, Eric now resides in Oregon for most of each year. Riding is still a regular part of his work though, in that guiding tours is a passion he'll always have, and researching new routes and regions allows RIDE Adventures to continue growing and providing reliable travel services to adventure minded riders and travelers from around the world. - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) Friends and fellow motorcycle riders, a huge thanks goes out to all of you for making 2013 such an incredible year for RIDE Adventures, LLC! The business saw fantastic growth in its 3rd year since opening, and we'll proudly continue with more plans for making more happy customers in 2014 and beyond. A few highlights from 2013: ***[![Patagonia Experience Motorcycle Tour](https://www.rideadv.com/hs-fs/file-24198190-jpg/images/che_patagonia.jpg?width=348&height=196&name=che_patagonia.jpg)](https://www.rideadv.com/tours-by-type/dual-sport-motorcycle-adventure-tours/patagonia-experience-motorcycle-tour/?hsLang=en-us)Rider* Magazine Article:** March 2013 saw a group of highly respected motorcycle industry owners and managers get together for the "Industry Invitational 2013," and [Arden Kysely from *Rider* Magazine](http://www.ridermagazine.com/touring-and-rallies/the-patagonia-experience-touring-chile-and-argentina-with-ride-adventures.htm/) came along to cover our [Patagonia Experience motorcycle tour](https://www.rideadv.com/tours-by-type/dual-sport-motorcycle-adventure-tours/patagonia-experience-motorcycle-tour/?hsLang=en-us). That article from August has helped promote the service we offer, helping riders see the incredible Andes Mountains of Chile and Argentina. **Motorcycle Rallies and Events:** Always looking forward to getting out and meeting you in person, we had booths at the [MSTA Star 2013](http://www.ridemsta.com/) in Lexington, Kentucky, the [BMW RA](http://www.bmwra.org/) at the Biltmore in North Carolina, the [BMW MOA Rally](https://bmwmoa.org/) in Salem, Oregon, and the [Curve Cowboy Reunion](http://www.curvecowboyreunion.com/) 2013 in Bend, Oregon. So great meeting you all in person! We look forward to more events in 2014.![BMW MOA Rally](https://www.rideadv.com/hs-fs/file-239088225-jpg/images/bmw_moa_2013.jpg?width=349&height=262&name=bmw_moa_2013.jpg) **Expansion of Partners Network:** It's no secret, we depend heavily on our trusted Partners and fellow tour & rental operators around the world. Anyone in the travel business who tells you otherwise, just isn't telling the truth. As such, we've taken our relationships with existing Partners to new levels, allowing you to communicate directly with them through our website. So you still get the comfort of dealing with the U.S.-based RIDE Adventures, LLC, and you still get the reassurance that we're connecting you only **the best providers in each region**, and you still get the benefits of the [Repeat Customer Discount program](https://www.rideadv.com/specials/motorcycle-adventure-renting-touring-discounts-repeat-customer-special-price/?hsLang=en-us); but now, you can communicate directly with **the best providers** in each country for arranging your motorcycle trip! This year we added [motorcycle rentals in South Africa](https://www.rideadv.com/motorcycle-rentals/south-africa/?hsLang=en-us) and [New Zealand](https://www.rideadv.com/motorcycle-rentals/new-zealand/?hsLang=en-us) to make sure you're taken care of when winter rolls in up north. The list could honestly go on forever, but as you can tell by the gaps of time in between recent blog posts, things are VERY busy right now, and time is tight. I personally am off to Colombia in the morning to help with the last ["Discover Colombia" guided tour](https://www.rideadv.com/tours-by-type/dual-sport-motorcycle-tours/Discover-Colombia-motorcycle-guided-tour-adventure/?hsLang=en-us) for 2013. Then off to Chile and Argentina for Patagonia tours through March. My best wishes go to all of you for similar travel plans and a safe and healthy 2014. Perhaps I'll be seeing you on one of these tours, if not in 2014, sometime soon!
