DEATH VALLEY & EASTERN SIERRAS
California's Eastern Sierra range is home to some of the best riding in North America.
The eastern side of the Sierra's is more abrupt and imposing, with the snow covered mountains rising up dramatically alongside the iconic 395 highway to truly heavenly heights - indeed, this is home to the highest peak in the lower 49 states - Mt. Whitney. Our tour of this magnificent land also visits the lowest point in North America; the sublime deserts of Death Valley, some of which sit nearly 300 feet below sea level. The topography is everchanging in this tour, from the magnificent canyons to the lush evergreen forests around the ski resort of Mammoth Lakes. The dramatic mountain riding provides incredible, gorgeous curvy passes, both paved and gravel which typically end at one of countless, stunning alpine lakes if not a mining ghost town.

MONTENEGRO & THE BALKANS
The Balkan Peninsula and the counties of the former Yugoslavia offer some of the best, still untouched riding in the world. The Silk Road Initiative has focused on building new highways and infrastructure leaving behind the ancient mountain routs that offer some of the most exciting if not precarious dirt riding in the old world. The way the mountains tower above the Adriatic sea forming gorgeous cliffs and fiords is an addictive thing to behold. Once you ride once, you will yearn to visit again. Virgin green pastures, deep mountain lakes, dark forests, deep canyons, and low populated hidden villages with centuries of being of influence from one empire after another all leave a deep mark on visitors. Come ride this incredible piece of the world that remains largely unknown to the riding community.

Meet The Guides
NIKOLA BULAJIC
Primary Guide Founder of PMTC and Pegasus Sidecar Tours, Nik is a life-long motorcycle enthusiast, naturalist, and soon to be father of two girls. He spent years roaming the earth solo on a KLR650, VFR800, Vstrom1000, etc, docking tens of thousands of miles exploring foreign lands in search of the promise for the most beautiful roads in the world, that so conveniently always happened to be around the next bend, in the distant horizon. An addict for experiences and a lover of the open road, Nik brings his vast adventure touring and guiding experience, 5 language fluency, and a multi-cultural upbringing, to create a unique provider of guiding and consulting services that only first-hand experience could allow for. His passion for motorcycle adventure touring and motojournalism began as The Pegasus Project, a solo world tour in partnership with The American Cancer Society, and the vast international touring experience is now able to benefit riders who wish to have a truly unique motorcycle touring adventure; those who desire more than what traditional motorcycle tours offer. He has a BA in Intl. Studies and Philosophy from the University of Michigan, and an MA from the University of California San Diego in Latin American Studies. Nik’s comprehensive motorcycle and lifestyle reviews on the PMTC YouTube channel have garnered nearly 2 million views in the last three years, and he’s grateful for the opportunity to be able to share his passion for ADV touring with the riding public. Pegasus has evolved since the year of its founding in 2011, however the mission to work toward finding a cure has remained steadfast. That’s why ten percent of all proceeds from the PMTC YouTube channel continue to be donated to cancer research centers around the US. You can view Nik’s motojournalism at www.PegasusMotorcycleTours.com, and his YouTube reviews at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXfcAF7bYScb-Jk86GOLnfw
