The company was founded by Scott and Beth Friday in May of 2002 as the result of our
passion for motorcycle touring. Over the last few years, we have organized many rides and
trips for ourselves and larger groups. During that time many of the participants of the
various events encouraged us to start a touring company. Out of that encouragement came
Backroad Motorcycle Tours.
We have been riding since April of 1999. In that time Scott has
logged over 160,000 miles on many different bikes. Beth has logged a little over 60,000
miles on four different bikes. Our current stable includes a 2002 Kawasaki KLR 650 and 2004
Suzuki V-Strom 650. We do both dualsport and street bases events.
Scott will walk up to anyone and start a conversation. He loves to meet people
from all walks of life. His background is in Engineering, Law and back porch philosophy. When
not running tours he works as a self employed engineer. His off time is spent wandering
backroads, daydreaming with his maps about roads and places as yet unexplored, and managing the
Two Wheeled Texans
web forum.
Beth is a little more reserved and not quite so forthright with people she
does not know. However she too loves to meet new people and makes friends quickly. Her
background is in banking. She is now a full time mother and working harder than she ever has in
her life. Sarah is three and Daniel is about 14 months...
Our goal is to provide a relaxing environment for our guests so they can focus on the
riding experience without the hassle of the planning. We want them to get the most out of their
limited vacation time without spending their life's savings. We also want to provide an opportunity
for our guests to meet other riders that share the same passion. We look forward to meeting you on
the road!
