We recently asked the member of our facebook group, which books have inspired you to ride, travel or even fix your beloved Motorbike...
Wondering if it was Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Jupiter's Travels, Race to Dakar (Charley Boorman), the very funny Bonjour! Is This Italy? or one of four great Adventure Motorcycle Travel Books by Sam Manicom? Or maybe even our own book from THE BIKER GUIDE!
TENAX, a World leading brand in the production and commercialization of products for processing and treatment of stone materials, will support the Aprilia Racing Team Gresini also in the 2016 MotoGP World Championship. Tenax Group, which is celebrating this year its sixtieth anniversary, has in fact renewed its partnership agreement with Gresini Racing: a successful collaboration that started back in 2008 in the premier class of motorcycle racing.
The story of Tenax began in 1956 in the province of Verona from a small company called "Brothers Bombana Angelo and Guido", which was producing mastic for the local market. Since 1960 the company confirmed its presence on the market by introducing new products such as abrasives for marble and granite, cutting tools, diamond abrasives and epoxy resins.
In 1998, as well as focusing on the wide range of products offered, Tenax started to develop its international branches. Currently it has eleven branches in the World, with exports to over 100 Countries and a number of employees close to 300 units.
GINO BOMBANA (Tenax Group President) “We are very pleased to renew the partnership with Team Gresini. Sharing the experience of MotoGP with Fausto and his team has already given us a lot of satisfactions in recent years, and I’m sure will continue in the future. The principles that join Tenax Group with Team Gresini, and generally with all the World of MotoGP, are the enthusiasm, the propensity for innovation, the attention to detail and the pursuit of higher technological value for the realization of our products. We are also proud to join our name with brands such as Aprilia and Gresini, which represent the excellence and quality of Made in Italy all over the World, another element that unites us. I wish to Fausto, to its riders and to the entire team a year of growth, full of successes and satisfactions, hoping that they can give us and all the motorcycling fans an exciting season”.
FAUSTO GRESINI “It’s a great pleasure to be able to continue working with Tenax, being a valuable partner of our team for many years in MotoGP. 2016 is an important year for both: Tenax Group in fact is celebrating 60 years of activity, while for Gresini Racing this is the twentieth season in Grand Prix racing. Important milestones that demonstrate the great commitment at international level of two entities with a strong Italian tradition. I wish to thank the President Gino Bombana and all Tenax Group because they have always followed and follow us with great passion and enthusiasm”.
To all the amazing ladies that ride on International Womens Day

Hello friends of THE BIKER GUIDE and Thank You for your business over the past few years.
We unfortunately have come to a point in our lives where age health and the draw of grandchildren in UK has to overtake this adventure this dream. We do not wish to see it close, but we can no longer continue the development.
We are offering for sale our properties and our dream of a Bikersbase in this wonderful location at an amazingly low price, when compared to the average UK house prices. To take over from us what's needed is a little adventuring spirit, interest in a new free-er life style, a portion of enthusiasm, some basic people skills and the sale price of course. Before you ask we thank you, but we do not wish to try obtaining managers again.
We are offering this fantastic opportunity for you to be able to purchase our wonderfully centrally located facility which lies amongst some of the finest roads and cultural attractions central Portugal can offer, not forgetting the nearly year round sunshine.
Of course you do not have to keep it as a bikers only place. The business side of the facility {main house} for those of you who have not visited, is currently set up as an eight en-suite bedroomed upper floor with half the ground floor set up as dining/bar area. The remaining half is underused, housing a sizeable kitchen and washing room.
There are also included on site a large workshop/garage, a large storage warehouse, a very tastefully done single bedroomed bungalow with own lounge, kitchen, bathroom, and patio.
The whole facility would greatly benefit from opening the doors to all types of tourists or visitors surveys on Booking.com and Airbnb they could sell far more of the rooms we have on a much more regular basis than we have been prepared to accept whilst trying to keep it as a |Bikers only facility.
