A taste of the US comes to the UK with our Harley-Davidson® hire! If you know your motorcycles you'll appreciate how special this all-American brand is. Now we are able to give licensed motorcycle riders the chance to go on a group ride out through the South Downs on a very special Harley. We are offering half & full-day experiences where you ride a genuine ex-US Police Road King bike. These motorbikes are the real deal & were imported all the way from downtown Houston Texas to the South Downs Surrey. They are truly amazing machines. Just take a look at the metal finery of the Harley-Davidson® Road King. The traditional retro screen the massive air cooled V-twin engine. Those classic external chrome push-rod covers. The huge tank emblazoned with the Harley name & that instantly recognisable speedometer & ignition switch on top. You're going to be riding a true icon. So where in the South Downs will you be going? These Harley-Davidson® rentals are run as guided tours covering around 60 miles on the half-day & 120 miles on the full-day trips. The routes have been carefully chosen to give you a superb mix of fast roads lovely lanes with overhanging trees & even cool tunnels taking you through pretty market towns & rolling countryside to experience the South Downs at its best. Of course no Harley road trip would be complete without some suitably interesting stops along the way (that also involve a decent cup of tea). You might see the likes of Pullborough's RSPB Reserve take lunch at the former Control Tower at legendary Goodwood or have a brew at the Station Cafe in Alton a long-time favourite pit stop for bikers. A highlight on both half & full day tours is always the blast through the Hindhead tunnel as you head back to base at Haslemere. Listen to the symphony of sound as you ride formation on your bikes. The noise is unmistakably Harley-Davidson® & a brilliant note to close on. To hire a Harley-Davidson® you will need to have a valid motorbike licence & been riding at least a 250cc motorbike for a minimum of two years. You can also opt for the pillion rider add-on for these vouchers so you can bring someone along with you to ride on the back. Time to don your biker leathers & get on that Road King! ...
