Adventure is all about finding people who are your kind of crazy
Rihards Grunte
OUTDURO chief
What tribes are, is a very simple concept that goes back 50 million years. It's about leading and connecting people and ideas. And it's something that people have wanted forever.
Hi there, my name is Rihards and I'm the chief of this tribe that we call OUTDURO. What we are is essentially a group of people who are on the same wavelengths, we have the same vision and idea of traveling on a motorcycle to far destinations or local but we're tied in roots of being in the wild and finding our masculinity and inner peace within ourselves.
At OUTDURO we prefer the more challenging trails and remote locations outside of touristy places. We prefer wild camping, a fireplace, a campfire meal, and a gazillion-star hotel. We love sharing our stories of adventures we've had and we organize events that are just the right amount of challenging and crazy for lifetime memories.

How to become a member?
Get the white mug
You get a white mug when you start actively attending our events and you start to show off your interest in our organization. You support us by spreading the good word either online or with friends. Yes, the mug can be bought in our shop but we remember people we've met.
Get the gray mug
A gray mug is handed to you by one of our existing members. He has noticed you and talked with you. He thinks you're a good match for our organization but you have to complete initiation tasks to prove it. We'll send you the tasks/criteria beforehand but the first and most important question you're gonna have to answer is why you want to be a part of OUTDURO?
Earn the black mug
You earn a black mug after you've successfully completed the initiation tasks within your given time period. You've proved yourself to be worthy and you're eager to give back to the community. You're now a part of OUTDURO association.

Ceremonial process
After successfully completing your initiation tasks and proving yourself worthy of our organization your gray mug is burned until it becomes black. This event happens once per year, better not miss it.
Welcome to the family!
We're not sons of anarchy and there is no forceful hierarchy. We respect each other and voice opinions in all matters.
A couple of times per year we come together to discuss our association goals, events, projects, and values. All important discussions are privately held and voted on.
Each of us has our own position on what we're best at but we have a collective responsibility toward the organization.
At the end of the day, we're just regular dudes who like to have fun so there's no pressure. Come as you are leave as you want to be.
