Our story

First the races, then the trips. Paolo Marisaldi and Alex Zanotti have spent a lifetime on motorcycles: rallies, the Dakar, deserts crossed and roads ridden a thousand times, in Africa as in Italy.

2WRI Motoclub is the project that brings all this together in one place and puts it at the service of those who want to experience the desert in the saddle, with guides who know every track and an organisation that leaves nothing to chance.
