Know More About Ecuador Freedom Bike Rental
Court Rand and Sylvain Gallea know a thing or two about adventure. Having met in 1990 while Court was working as a motorcycle courier in Paris, the two later hit the road in 2008 on a protracted motorcycle tour of the Americas. Departing New York City, where Court worked as the director of a software company and Sylvain as an electrician, their southbound route took them through Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, Chile, and terminated in Buenos Aires, Argentina. More than just a crazy adventure, it was an affirmation of what motorcycles and open roads represent - a sense of liberation. They found themselves with a new sense of purpose that revolved around providing people the opportunity to experience life in full.
In 2009 Court and Sylvain, ex-pats from the United States and France launched Ecuador Freedom Bike Rental. Starting with one humble shop and a small staff in Quito, it didn't take long before Ecuador Freedom Bike Rental became Ecuador's foremost adventure motorcycle touring company. They've increased their fleet of bikes since opening and employed more members staff wise - all dedicated to giving riders an unforgettable experience tailored specifically to them. It helped that Sylvain had been a bartender prior while Court was an Outward Bound Instructor working mainly with children struggling through school or family life, but what truly sets them apart is how deeply they care about those who have come to love the land on which they live so dearly. Since opening its doors, Ecuador Freedom Bike Rental has become the preeminent adventure motorcycle touring company in Ecuador and South America. They have added more motorcycles, and additional employees, and built a headquarters that handles motorcycle maintenance. Their continued success results from their unwavering commitment to their guests and adopted community.
Central to their company mission is a dedication to the people of Ecuador by giving back whenever they can. They’ve come a long way since first hitting the road on their big adventure over a decade ago. Perhaps their most impressive accomplishment is proving everyone is deserving of the trip of a lifetime. Everyone needs––Freedom.

Safety: Our Priority
Safety and security are about being aware of your surroundings, clear communication, and being prepared. Our equipment is provided by leading international manufacturers, purchased new and maintained that way by a team of professionals. We don't cut corners on tires, brakes or any equipment and we inspect and secure everything with North American and European standards. We follow MSF guidelines with regards to group riding, and our tours are equipped with satellite communication systems in case of an emergency. Our entire staff has been trained in emergency scene management, first aid and CPR as well as motorcycle mechanics and maintenance. We learned after the 2016 7.8 earthquake that things can go terribly wrong when you least expect it. No matter all the preparation and safe riding, things can happen, and if so, you want to know what to do. We want to make sure that in case of an emergency, we can react and know what to do. A crisis is not a time to freeze up. Knowing first aid and CPR takes away the doubts of and saves precious seconds in an emergency.
