Episode 82 - TRI333PLE
TRI333PLE (pronounced “triple three”) began with seven friends, a motorcycle trip around Taiwan, and a collection of phone videos they wanted to preserve as a memory.
That first video eventually grew into a Singapore-based YouTube channel featuring motorcycle reviews and riding adventures. But when Winston, Amos, and the rest of the TRI333PLE team saw an opportunity to bring riders together in the real world, they began organizing guided motorcycle tours throughout Asia.
These aren’t trips built around covering the greatest distance or conquering the most difficult road. TRI333PLE describes them as “holidays on two wheels”—carefully planned experiences where the motorcycles, accommodations, food, scenery, and time spent together all matter.
The tours welcome riders with different experience levels, riding styles, and backgrounds. Some arrive alone and leave with an entirely new group of friends. Others make the trip as a family, including mothers and daughters, parents and children, and even grandparents sharing the experience with another generation of riders.
In this episode of Driven to Ride, Winston and Amos talk about the friendship that started TRI333PLE, the work that goes into planning each tour, helping the FortNine crew through Southeast Asia, and why the people you meet may be even more memorable than the roads you ride.
