Not many humans can throw an adventure bike around like Chris Birch

Chris is a life-long motorcycle addict, winning the NZ enduro series multiple times, as well as extreme endures such as Roof of Africa and Red Bull Romaniacs. Since competing in, and finishing, the Dakar Rally in 2012, Chris has developed a following in the adventure bike world, and is one of KTM’s highest profile adventure ambassadors.
After racing successfully for several years, he has transitioned more to coaching, and he has been teaching bike skills since 2007. Combining his passion and talent for riding, and his background as a mechanical engineer, allows him to break down the physics of riding and describe techniques in detail.

It’s not all about the extreme stuff – Birchy also adresses the basics


“We have been planning this series for over a year and we are excited to bring such great content and highly detailed information to our customers.
It’s been something that we have thought about, discussed and had requests for over several years.
Nothing will replace face to face coaching, however this is fantastic option for those wanting to build up skills if they can’t get to a clinic, or if they want refreshing of the information we’ve already given them.
It’s nice in a way to launch it at a time when we know a lot of our customers and fans around the world are in varying stages of lockdowns, isolation and travel bans / restrictions, and might be craving something great to watch once they have finished Tiger King!”
