Cultural association "7milamiglialontano" promotes
adventure and sustainable travel in order to create global awareness of the problems
of pollution in the sea, along the coasts and in the rivers. Kappa supported the biker
Giacomo Tognoli on his dream trip along the Icelandic coastline.
First impressions of Iceland.
Though the sea was calm,
the crossing was marked by constant rain...
And Iceland’s weather forecast
didn’t leave much hope!
As a matter of fact we had to wear
our rain gear as soon as we got on the ferry ...
From when we disembarked at Seydisfjordur,
and for almost two hours,
all we saw were low-hanging clouds
and pouring rain.
We could only imagine the places
we were riding through.
The waterproof saddle bag easily transforms into a multi-purpose bag.
It’s perfect for long journeys under extreme conditions.

A must on our journey was a visit
to The Shark Museum, located on a farm
where the main product, shark meat,
has been treated to eliminate any toxins
and then dried.
The shark meat dish known as “hákarl”
is an Icelandic tradition.
The meat used comes from the Greenland shark,
which is caught alongside other types of fish.
The full-face helmet KV30 ENDURO RIDE is the ideal helmet for on-off road trips.
A helmet that combines all the comfort for long trips with the aggressive look
that is common to adventure off-road travel.

The road surface was excellent and
allowed us to make good time.
The only danger was the sheep,
which, startled by the sound of the bikes,
would dash into the road unexpectedly.
The sun finally came out and we were able
to admire the green of this peninsula and
the white farmhouses set against the cliffs.
Some scattered sheep crouched in the grass
to take shelter from the wind.
The SPECIFIC RANGE created by Kappa for the Honda Africa Twin makes
the Japanese two-cylinder suitable for the most extreme conditions.
In 1956 Kappa started designing and developing accessories that allow you
to reach even the most remote destinations.

Travelling through Iceland on a motorcycle is a dream,
but it’s one of the most challenging experiences a biker can have.
For this adventure our travellers chose K•VENTURE, the pair of aluminium side cases
with a 37 L capacityin 1.5 mm thick aluminium.
Painted black, they have polymer edges and profiled aluminium internal reinforcements.
Light, ample storage space and extremely durable.
