We take a look at Ryder, Offline Campers’ new toy hauler. Now you don’t have to choose between your love of bikes and your passion for outback adventures!
Offline Campers recently caught my attention when they snagged not one, but four awards this year for their camper, The Domino. The year 2022 has seen The Domino win Camper Trailer of the Year, Best Hybrid, Most Innovative and Best Build Quality. This comes after being crowned Most Innovative and Best Camper Trailer just a year earlier in 2021.
So when I learned that Offline Campers recently released a new model called the Ryder, I was pretty excited. Why? Because they’ve managed to successfully design and build a combined toy hauler and camper without all the bulkiness that usually goes with it.
Basically, anyone who gets one of these no longer has to choose between their love of riding and touring Australia’s outback. The Ryder by Offline Campers lets you indulge your passion for both.
