Meet your coaches
ERIC SACHS
Head Coach/Owner
Hi my name is Eric Sachs. I was born in Hollywood, CA and have lived in Southern California ever since. I became a police officer at the age of 21 and was given the opportunity to serve the public in that capacity for 10 years.
I got my first motorcycle at age 17 and have been on two wheels ever since. In 2015 I bought my first BMW Adventure bike but was terrified to take it off-road. I found Rawhyde Adventures in 2016 and learned the basics of adventure motorcycle riding in my first "Intro" class. I fell in love with the sport and attended several of Rawhyde's training classes and tours over the next year or so. The amazing training and instruction at Rawhyde ultimately paved the road for me to become a coach!
Today, as a coach at Rawhyde, I am afforded the opportunity to serve and to share my knowledge and love of ADV motorcycle riding with our customers. I coach our Next Step, Intro +, and Intro to Adventure curriculums. I am a WFR (Wilderness First Responder) and frequently act as the "sweep rider" for our Base Camp Alfa tour.
I live in Newberry Park, CA with my wide, 4 wonderful children, 2 dogs, a cat and a guinea pig. I'm looking forward to meeting with you all.
Talk to our Rider Advocate
Here at Rawhyde Adventures we believe in actually having a conversation with people that are interested in our programs so please call us if you have the time. If you reach our voicemail; please leave a message and we WILL return your call promptly.
Please Note: Occasionally we have programs that require the service of our entire staff and take us far beyond cell range, and thus it may be a day or two before we can return your call, but rest assured we will do so as soon as possible.
Even though we'd really rather talk to you in person.. email is sometimes necessary so - email if you must but call us if you can, we'll be delighted to answer your questions. If you do not receive a response to your email within 2 business days; please call. If we are out of the office (as stated above) we will contact you as soon as possible.
Thank you.
