Peace of mind:

Motorcycles, riders and pillion passengers are insured for road use within policy terms.

Rider (driver) limits: €3,000 (death) · €9,000 (total permanent disability) · €1,800 (medical expenses).

A standard €400 insurance excess for motorcycle damage applies per incident. This is the most you would contribute towards repair costs.

A 400€ refundable security deposit also applies, and only what is necessary is deducted, up to that limit.

For extra peace of mind, an Excess Reduction option is available to reduce both the excess and the refundable security deposit to 200€ (additional fee applies).

At the heart of every Cinematic Retro Rides Script (tour) is the current-generation Triumph Bonneville T100, a modern classic motorcycle that combines unmistakable British styling with contemporary engineering, reliability and everyday usability. The fleet has been deliberately chosen to complement the character of guided motorcycle touring in inland Andalusia: comfortable enough for full riding days, engaging on winding country roads and perfectly at home among white villages, mountain landscapes and rural scenery.

The aim is not to recreate the compromises of riding a genuine vintage motorcycle. The Bonneville T100 provides the visual character and feel of a classic British twin while offering the confidence and dependability of a modern motorcycle.

Current-Generation Triumph Bonneville T100

The Bonneville T100 is powered by Triumph's 900 cc High Torque parallel-twin engine, producing 65 PS with a smooth and accessible delivery particularly well suited to real-world road riding. Its upright riding position, low 790 mm seat height and balanced handling make it easy to settle into, while the torque-assist clutch helps keep operation light and manageable throughout the day.

Modern technology is integrated without taking away from the motorcycle's traditional appearance. The T100 incorporates electronic fuel injection, ABS and traction control while retaining the characteristic lines, twin-cylinder layout and understated design associated with the Bonneville name.

This combination is particularly appropriate for Cinematic Retro Rides. The motorcycles provide enough performance to enjoy Andalusia's flowing and winding inland roads while fitting naturally with the measured pace of the Scripts, where riding enjoyment matters more than outright speed.

A Motorcycle Chosen for Touring Andalusia

The routes followed by Cinematic Retro Rides favour paved country roads through inland Andalusia, away from motorways, busy coastal routes, large towns and cities whenever possible. These are roads where balance, predictable power delivery, an upright riding position and easy handling matter more than extreme performance.

The Bonneville T100 suits that environment naturally. Its riding position provides a comfortable view of the road ahead, its power delivery is progressive and manageable, and its modern-classic character complements the villages, countryside and mountain landscapes through which the Scripts travel.

Riding days typically cover approximately 180 to 250 kilometres depending on the route, season and duration of the Script. The T100 provides the combination of comfort, character and involvement needed for this type of touring without isolating the rider from the road.

The Cinematic Retro Rides Cast

The fleet consists of current-generation Triumph Bonneville T100 motorcycles, each given the name of an icon from the golden age of cinema.

The names reflect the cinematic identity behind Cinematic Retro Rides and give each motorcycle its own place in the Cast, while the use of the same model throughout the fleet provides consistency in riding position, controls, performance and equipment.

Rather than treating the motorcycles simply as rental vehicles, they form an integral part of the experience. Their classic lines sit naturally within the landscapes and settings of inland Andalusia while their modern engineering makes them suited to the practical demands of guided touring.

Motorcycle Equipment Included with Every Script

Each motorcycle is prepared with equipment intended to make guided touring practical without unnecessarily changing the clean character of the Bonneville T100.

Standard riding equipment includes an ECE 22.06 approved full-face helmet, a top-brand Mesh intercom for communication with the guide and other riders, a vibration-dampening smartphone mount and USB-C and USB-A charging connections on the handlebar.

Multi-day Scripts (tours) additionally include saddlebags for personal belongings. Motorcycle jackets and gloves can be hired separately when required.

The Mesh intercom forms an important part of the guided format, allowing clear communication between riders and guide during the journey without relying solely on hand signals or stops.

Insurance and Motorcycle Excess

The Triumph Bonneville T100 is provided with comprehensive motorcycle insurance subject to the applicable policy terms and an excess of 400€ per incident. A refundable security deposit is required before the motorcycle is handed over.

An optional Excess Reduction can also be selected to reduce the standard motorcycle insurance excess to 200€.

Personal travel insurance is not included and riders should arrange suitable cover for their own circumstances before travelling.

Modern Classic Character without Vintage Compromises

The term modern classic accurately describes the role of the Bonneville T100 within Cinematic Retro Rides. Its styling draws strongly on Triumph's long-established Bonneville identity, but the motorcycle itself is a current-generation machine rather than a restored classic or vintage motorcycle.

That distinction matters. Riders can enjoy the appearance, mechanical character and straightforward riding experience associated with a traditional British motorcycle while benefiting from modern brakes, electronic fuel injection, ABS, traction control and contemporary reliability.

For guided motorcycle tours lasting from one to five days, this balance provides exactly what the Scripts require: character without unnecessary complication, comfort without detachment and enough performance to make the roads enjoyable while maintaining the relaxed rhythm at the heart of Cinematic Retro Rides.

Small Groups and a Consistent Riding Experience

Cinematic Retro Rides operates with a maximum of six riders plus the guide. Using the same Triumph Bonneville T100 throughout the fleet helps create a consistent group riding experience, with motorcycles offering comparable performance, handling and riding characteristics.

This suits the small-group philosophy particularly well. The focus remains on flowing together through scenic inland roads, maintaining a comfortable rhythm and enjoying the places encountered along the way rather than managing large differences between motorcycles or riding styles.

For riders looking for guided Triumph motorcycle tours in Andalusia, the Bonneville T100 is more than the machine supplied for the journey. It is part of the identity of the experience itself: British modern-classic character, Andalusian roads and a style of touring built around the pleasure of the ride.
