Welcome to Ricky Johnson Adventure Academy. I’ve been riding motorcycles my whole life.

LIFES JOURNEY

I started at age 3 and still love riding at 60. One thing I’ve experienced
is that when a boy rides a motorcycle he feels like a man and when a man
rides a motorcycle he feels like a boy. Its my desire to get people on or to
get them back on motorcycles to feel the freedom that only a motorcycle can bring.

About Us

Get Ready for more fun Adventures with RJ .

Welcome to Ricky Johnson Adventures. I’ve been riding motorcycles my whole life. I started at the age of 3 and still love riding at 59. One thing I’ve experienced is that when a boy rides a motorcycle he feels like a man and when a man rides a motorcycle he feels like a boy. It is my desire to get people on or to get them back on motorcycles to feel the freedom that only a motorcycle can bring.

We’re ready to ride, are you?

As the name implies a lucky 13 riders will join Ricky and a “Special celebrity guest” on an epic 300-mile (200 on Friday and 100 on race day) 2-day Adventure ride. From Blackmore Ranch we venture east through the mountains and into the spectacular Anza-Borrego desert on open 2 lane roads. We’ll arrive at Ocotillo Wells for dinner and lodging and set out Saturday morning to Fox Raceway in Pala, Ca. to catch the opening round of the 2024 AMA National Motocross series with Pit pass and VIP access included.

 

 

 

A one of a kind 2-day adventure takes place in the mile high city of Denver, Co. After touring the scenic mountain byways, we make our way to Thunder Valley Raceway where your Pit pass and VIP access gets you up close to the action of round 3 of the 2024 AMA National Motocross series. A premier experience awaits as we join Ricky Johnson as Grand Marshall.









Make plans to head south to Baja Mexico with Ricky as he races again with the reigning SCORE Trophy Truck Legends Champions Team Vildosola in the Baja 400. This 3-day bucket list event gets you inside the Baja Trophy Truck team experience while riding in the wilds of Baja. And to top it off Factory Honda and Baja legend Chuck Miller will be our guide. On Sunday morning we join Ricky for great Baja bench racing and the 200-mile ride back to Blackmore Ranch.







Ricky Johnson’s passion for riding and teaching is available in this 2-day adventure Dual Sport experience. With the spectacular Anza-Borrego desert as our base we cover all facets of off-roadtechniques. From the classroom to the saddle, we will teach you a solid base allowing you to ride with confidence, knowing you are on the right path. Instruction is only good if you practice it,and we will provide a plan for you to practice after the class as well. Great vistas combined with Ricky’s skill building and one of a kind desert riding make for the ultimate Dual Sport adventure.

Max Walker

Within half a day my skills were elevated more than in the past 15 years.  His instructions were spot on.  Not sure how he can be so patient.

Ricky is the ultimate wing man.  Our group loved all of his tall tales.  I highly recommend his 3 day tours.

The SoCal tour was super technical a bit on and off-road.  Never knew there were so many lost roads.  Great ride RJ!
