The brief

World Cup fans know Josh Carlson from Carlson On Course, the segment on the race broadcasts where he rides each track and talks viewers through it. Carlson Off Course plays on that name. It is about everything between the rounds.

The World Cup travels to some of the most beautiful places in the world. The idea was for Josh and friends to ride from round to round on Triumph adventure bikes, through the mountains, towns, villages and cafés along the way.

Our role

NET Performance partnered the series with seven brands:

  • Triumph
  • 6D Helmets
  • Cardo Systems
  • Alpinestars
  • GoPro
  • Quad Lock
  • Thule

We also designed the Carlson Off Course logo and its animated title sequence.

Josh hosted, with riders and friends along for parts of the ride. Ben Lovell rode the Stelvio Pass and the Swiss Alps with him.

The route ran from Loudenvielle in the French Pyrenees to Leogang in Austria, by way of the Stelvio Pass and the Swiss Alps. Previews went out on Josh's Instagram as they rode, filmed on GoPro.
