About us
Bigtrail Adventure is the bridge between “I want to go” and “I went”: a motorcycle touring hub created by people who live on the road.
The founder
“Motorcycling isn’t just a hobby for me: it’s a way of life, a purpose.”
He started at 17 on a Honda Dream 100, moved on to a DT 180 on the trails and never looked back. He has owned a GS 800, led four expeditions through the Atacama, crossed more than five passes between Chile and Argentina, explored Uruguay and ridden all the way to Ushuaia.
Off the bike, he has spent more than 23 years as an entrepreneur in strategic marketing and brand positioning, leading TBS Group. That mindset turns every trip into smart planning and every piece of content into useful information.
The journey
A walkmachine, then a Honda Dream 100 at 17 and a DT 180 on the trails. He never stopped after that.
The Bigtrail Adventure YouTube channel starts as a travel diary: Atacama, Andean passes, Uruguay and Ushuaia.
A traffic accident in Curitiba, after returning from Ushuaia, keeps Thiago off two wheels for about five years.
The Uruguay Expedition marks the comeback. The @bigtrail_adventure Instagram takes off and becomes a community.
Pontões Capixabas, MotoGP Brazil, the Carretera Austral and the launch of Six Days Bicho do Paraná.
Mission
To build an ecosystem that connects people who love traveling by motorcycle and turns that passion into a community: strong, collaborative and always on the move. Routes, tips, maps, connections and solutions that make adventure accessible, organized and possible.
Vision
To be the easiest way to get from point A to point B safely and with zero headaches — with ready-made routes, technology, products that make sense, the Brand Collection and partnerships with lodging and restaurants along the way.
The right dose of challenge, never at the expense of safety.
Big trail, cruiser, sport or small displacement: every tribe is welcome.
Riders helping riders. Friendships the road puts in your path.
Routes, costs, maps and real-world tips to turn wanderlust into miles.
Team
You choose the level of support. Want full independence? You get the route, maps and stops and ride at your own pace. Want a premium experience? A concierge rider takes care of everything — guiding you on the road or backing you up remotely in real time.
Founder · Lead rider
Riding since he was 17, he has ridden to Ushuaia, crossed more than five Andean passes and done the Atacama four times. He created the Bigtrail Adventure project to turn "someday I'll go" into actual miles on the road.
Senior guide · Concierge
In 2022 he rode solo across the Americas on a Suzuki V-Strom 650: five months from Curitiba to Ushuaia and from Ushuaia to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. His Expedição América — Uma Aventura aos Extremos became a 44-episode YouTube series. He sorts out the unexpected before it turns into a problem.
Guide · Virtual Concierge
She runs remote support: tracks the group in real time, adjusts bookings and keeps the logistics running smoothly while you ride.
Off-road guide · Six Days co-founder
Off-road guide specializing in big trail bikes and creator of the Pontões Capixabas Big Trail Off-Road Tour in Pancas, Espírito Santo. He turns gnarly trails into unforgettable rides — and co-created Six Days Bicho do Paraná with Thiago.
Adventure rider · Long-distance guide
Civil engineer from Curitiba. In 2026 he rode solo from Curitiba to Deadhorse (Prudhoe Bay), Alaska, in 62 days — the end of the road in the Americas. He posts his “Estradas Épicas” (Epic Roads) series every week.
On the road with Jailson
Five months, more than a dozen countries and one V-Strom 650: from Curitiba to Ushuaia and from Ushuaia to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. The whole trip is documented in 44 episodes on Jailson’s channel (in Portuguese) — and his new series, Expedição Atacama – Carretera Austral, has just started.
