Maja's Motorcycle Adventures
Maja is an adventurer by heart. As a teenager she was always eager to discover new places and used every opportunity to travel, even if only a weekend trip away. Growing up in Yugoslavia meant that leaving the country wasn’t easy so during the early teenage years she often hitched a lift to the Croatian coast with her friends and a tent, spent the weekend there and returned back to Ljubljana for school on a Monday.
In 2016 Maja decided she needed a new adventure and passed her motorcycle test in August and bought her first motorcycle. This really lit the fire in her soul, and she is rarely seen off the bike. 2018 saw here on a tour of Wales and a trip to the Isle of Man. Plenty of miles for a newbie. That same year she joined Blood Bikes Wales and become the first female rider in Wrexham where she volunteers as much as she can. But it was 2019 that really changed her world.
She always dreamt of having a Ducati and in January she took a delivery of a beautiful Supersport S. Part of the dream was always to ride it to Slovenia. With one part of the dream realised she set off to fulfil the second half. 2020 hasn’t been great for adventures but she still managed a trip to Switzerland, playing the ‘dodge the Covid restrictions’ rules by riding via Belgium and Germany and avoiding France to stop her from having to quarantine in Switzerland.
Maja’s outlook on life is positive and optimistic and her zest for adventures saw her set up a whole new business as a fallout of the lockdown in early 2020. Since then she’s guided numerous group aroud Wales and even to Slovenia. Her friendly attitude and relaxed approach to tours makes people feel like they’re touring with a friend. Maja has big plans for the future and is looking forward to meeting you on one of her tours.
