In 2013 he started working in Spain and the rest of Europe with ex-MotoGp rider Simon Crafar who has been running his company Motovudu where he was teaching and coaching private riders on the circuits.
He also likes video and photography, his dog Choco and exploring new places and eating new food.
Attila's journey from the structured world of the Swedish Armed Forces to the exciting motorcycle industry on the Canary Islands is a tale of continuous growth and adaptation. With twelve years of military service under his belt, Attila transitioned into the corporate realm, leveraging his disciplined approach to complete his university studies in Australia with a focus on risk management in the contexts of security and safety. He then spent ten years working across continents in various consulting, advisory, and managerial roles.
Seeking a change from the corporate world, and a move towards what truly matters to him, Attila changed gears in 2018. He explored the world of entrepreneurship through running two bicycle tours businesses—one in Transylvania focusing on guided MTB tours and another in southern Sweden specializing in guided gravel bike tours. Alongside this, he completed firefighter training with the Swedish Rescue Services and served as a part-time firefighter, whilst continuing to consult in security for one of Sweden’s largest logistics companies.
In late 2022, drawn by the allure of perpetual sunshine and ideal weather, Attila relocated to the Canary Islands. His current role at Canary Ride marries his passion for motorcycles with his extensive background in safety and security risk management. At Canary Ride, Attila is pivotal in enhancing service quality and operational safety, ensuring every client enjoys not just a ride, but a meticulously curated adventure. His transition into this new role is not just a career shift, but a lifestyle transformation that embodies his philosophy of embracing life’s opportunities and adventures.
After 1.5 years and 50,000 km of exploring stunning landscapes and roads, she arrived in Tenerife and decided to stay. She believes that nothing can compare to the beauty and diversity of the Canary Islands, where she enjoys sharing her passion for motorcycles with others.
Katinka is also a big animal lover and a nature enthusiast. When she is not on her bike, she likes to hike in the mountains, swim in the sea or work on her motorbike.
Canary Ride was born out of a three-month motorcycle trip that turned into a lifelong passion. Our founder, Ondřej Vymětalík, a 31-year-old from the Czech Republic, fell in love with the Canary Islands, especially Gran Canaria. He loved the beautiful landscapes and winding roads so much that he decided to stay longer than a year. This love for the islands led him to start Canary Ride. His goal was simple: to share the thrill of riding through Gran Canaria’s unique landscapes with others.
