Our Story
Jamie and I have been on a two-up team for over 15 years. We have ridden many miles together and have enjoyed so many memories on two and four wheels. Our passion for riding motorcycles and off-road camping is only surpassed by our joy of exploring new places and sharing those experiences together.
Jerry James - Owner / Tourmeister
2021 was a pivotal year for Jerry. In October, he took a leap of faith and left a long career in retail management in order to live out his dream of operating his own moto touring service. By combining his years of management skills and abilities with his 40+ years of motorcycle riding and touring, he is well-suited for the job. Jerry’s goal for Moto Adrenaline Tours is to do all the planning and organizing so other enthusiasts (both 2-wheel and 4-wheel) will be able to enjoy the best experiences and best locations without any worry.

Jamie James - Owner / Expert Pillion
With over 150,000 miles, 16 years, and several different motorcycles, Jamie had earned her stripes as an “Expert Pillion”. The thrill of carving twisty back roads and using her senses to take in the environment lights her fire. Being a teacher allows Jamie the benefit of having summers off so she can contribute to route scouting and planning for Moto Adrenaline Tours. 2021 was a big year for Jamie, too. During her summer break, she took the rider training course and gained her motorcycle endorsement, and bought her first, very own motorcycle.
Dustin & Kate Coit - Dual-Sport Ride Leaders
Jerry and Jamie’s paths crossed with Dustin and Kate’s during the Covid-19 pandemic. Both couples have YouTube channels focusing on motorcycling that laid the foundation of a deep friendship. Dustin and Kate started riding together on cruisers and have since made the transition to ADV bikes. Dustin has always loved guiding people into the backcountry, be it on a snowboard in Colorado or on a motorcycle in Arkansas. He loves to study maps and strives to make the best routes possible. Recently, the couple decided to train and attend the BMW GS Trophy Qualifier. Their training makes them a great team for leading dual-sport tours through the Ozarks where they like to get dirty and to take the road less traveled.
