About

BBot are a bunch of mates who enjoy motorcycling and in 2006 decided to do some touring in mainland Europe. Back then there were 5 of us and in the ensuing years riders have come and gone – 10 in all to date.

With the exception of 2017, and up until Covid, there has been a tour every year since 2006. During that time we’ve ridden through 12 different countries over hundreds of mountain passes clocking up 30,000 miles. Purely for our own amusement and reflection this website is a travelogue of those tours.
