Our Story
Hi, I’m Corey, founder of MotoRabbit Adventures located in Upstate New York.
The idea for MotoRabbit began after countless hours hunched over the computer, tirelessly tearing through different map sources, trying to find the most rural, scenic motorcycle experience. For us here at MotoRabbit, the destination isn't the highlight of a trip but rather the beauty that lies between start and finish.
Getting into the sport of adventure riding was a big part of my childhood. At an early age I can remember riding my little Honda Trail 50 in circles around the yard. As I grew older, I began to compete in hare-scrambles. Although fun, I felt that this wasn't my true calling. The speed and focus took away the enjoyment for me. I turned to another form of racing - hard enduro. Hard enduro was everything that hare-scramble wasn't. It was slower, technically more challenging and best of all it allowed me to enjoy more of the beauty of the landscape around me. As a teen I was obsessed with the freedom that two-wheels granted, I even got my motorcycle permit before my drivers permit. My first motorcycle, the trusty KLR 650 was the bike that opened my eyes to the world around me.
The serenity that I’ve found on a motorcycle rivals that of any tourist destination, and best of all it can be found anywhere. This is where my dream of creating an adventure website began. I feel upstate New York is a wonderful place to explore on two wheels, we have many special state forests but unfortunately little to no information for those that want to adventure ride. Although not a new concept by any means, my goal is to create a website that enables me to share my experiences, my highs and lows and hopefully create connections to other riders and communities in the Northeast. I want to share routes with others, welcome feedback, but most importantly - encourage new riders to get out there and explore responsibly.
