Harley-Davidson competition winner starts mega trip

Harley-Davidson competition winner starts mega trip.

Harley-Davidson has started its Discover More 2015 campaign which sees competition winner Luis Castilla embark on the journey of a lifetime. He will ride across Europe throughout summer.

Castilla was chosen from more than 10,000 applicants from 27 different countries for the Discover More initiative and will experience a two-month, all-expenses-paid European journey of discovery on a Harley-Davidson Street Glide Special motorcycle. He will also get paid €25,000 and get to keep the motorcycle when the tour ends in July 2015.

Castilla started his adventure this week in London and will continue his journey riding through some of the most renowned touring roads in Europe, discovering vibrant cultures, sights and sounds along the way. The route will include a visit to the Norwegian Fjords, French Riviera and Cat and Fiddle road in the UK, all of which will showcase the spirit of discovery that comes with touring on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle.

“Ever since being selected as the winner for the Harley-Davidson Discover More campaign, I have not been able to contain my excitement as I know this will be the most amazing experience of my life,” said Castilla on the day of his departure from London to the European mainland.

“I have been overwhelmed with messages of congratulations from fellow touring enthusiasts across the world. Many have shared some beautiful and incredible European road trips that have inspired the stunning route on which I will be setting off today. I am looking forward to sharing my experience over the next two months that will hopefully encourage others to undertake a similar adventure themselves.”
