Get OFF the Couch and Explore
About Me
Hello, I’m Colin Parker, and I love exploring on two wheels. As I child I used to hop on my bike and be gone all day. Now as a (supposed) adult I love to hop on my dual sport motorcycle and explore my own neighbourhood, my province or internationally. This site is to inspire you to get off the couch and explore!
I am located in Summerland, British Columbia, Canada. Summerland is in the Okanagan Valley one of the most beautiful areas of Canada. The Okanagan is the perfect place for outdoor adventures, wine touring, and lakeside relaxation. We have lots of amazing roads or off-road trails to put a huge smile on your face.
What I Ride
My current motorcycle is the Pack Mule, a 2006 KTM 950 Adventure. The 75-degree V-twin has enough grunt for touring two-up with luggage. A large 21-inch front tire and loads of suspension travel sometimes make me think I can take this motorcycle anywhere. I am always amazed at what a skilled rider can do with this bike, I am also sure a skilled rider would be absolutely amazed at what I can’t do with this bike.
