Overview

Description

Show Harley Tourers through the lens of riders enjoying breathtakingly epic mountain rides throughout Europe.

Drive engagement by tapping into an emotional dream any biker could relate to – a paid for epic tour, and a brand new touring bike. Find a rider who’d tour Europe in search of the top 10 rides. Create a job opportunity no real biker could resist – 15,000km, 20 countries on a Harley and showcase the journey. Build a community for riders to find and share their own Greatest Rides.

Target non-Harley riders to drive re-appraisal and welcome some new converts to the Harley brotherhood. Tell the story in an environment people can care about (Your Greatest Rides).

Give them an amazing content experience and encouraged genuine and proactive involvement.

Integrity was crucial – bikers involving bikers… no gimmicks and no nonsense.

Outcome

The interaction with the platform was vast, developing an entirely new community filled with content created by its participants, all under the banner of Harley. But more than this we also got people away from their keyboards, into Harley showrooms and onto the open road on some really epic bikes.
