About Us

Welcome to WaarMoto, the adventure‑riding hub built for couples who want to trade ordinary weekends for unforgettable two‑wheel journeys. We’re Keith and Andrea Waara, a Calgary‑based pair who’ve spent the last three decades proving that love, laughter, faith and, recently, a little bit of horsepower make the perfect recipe for lasting memories.

Inspire couples to ride together.
We believe that adventure riding isn’t just a solo sport—it’s a partnership that strengthens communication, builds trust, and creates stories you’ll tell for years. Whether you’re both beginners or one partner is already seasoned, we aim to show that the road (or trail) is far more rewarding when you’re side‑by‑side.

Riding together forces you to communicate clearly, trust each other’s instincts, and celebrate each other’s victories—big or small. It turns a solitary hobby into a shared adventure, deepening the bond you already cherish. We’ve lived it, we’ve laughed at it, and we’ve proven that the best journeys are the ones you take hand‑in‑hand (or foot‑on‑foot‑peg).

Keith – The Back‑woods Veteran

Keith grew up tearing through the backwoods and mountains of northern British Columbia. After a busy career, raising three kids, and a long riding hiatus, he rediscovered his passion in his late forties. Today, he balances a demanding role as Director of Disaster Relief for an international NGO with weekend trips that take him deep into the Southern Alberta Rockies and beyond.

Andrea – The Rookie‑turned‑Addict

Andrea never imagined herself on a bike until she started watching adventure‑riding videos with Keith. One night she said, “I think I could do that!” A street-riding school, a 10,000-km stint on a Honda Rebel 300, and a CFMoto Ibex 450 later, she’s fallen head-over-handlebars for both on- and off-road riding. By day, she runs a community association as General Manager; by night, she’s the unofficial mentor for any woman who thinks a motorcycle is just a noisy lawnmower.

Together we’ve turned a shared hobby into a lifestyle, and we want to help other couples do the same.

• Ride Together, Adventure Forever. Whether you’re a seasoned rider who knows the difference between a “lean” and a “slide,” or a total newbie who still thinks “throttle” is a fancy word for “coffee,” we believe the best journeys are shared.
• Keep It Real (and Funny). We’ll never lecture you with jargon or pretend we’re the only ones who ever got stuck in a ditch. Expect honest stories, a few self‑deprecating jokes, and the occasional “Did we really just do that?” moment.
• Learn by Doing. Keith’s back‑country expertise meets Andrea’s fresh‑eyes curiosity—together we prove that learning never stops, and neither does the fun.

• Storytelling: Blog posts, videos, Facebook/Instagram and a Podcast (coming soon) that capture the highs, lows, and everything in between.
• Community Building: From local meet‑ups to virtual rides across the globe, we’re all about connecting riders of every skill level.
• Gear & Guidance: Honest reviews, practical tips, and the occasional “don’t try this at home” disclaimer (because safety first, laughs second).
