Multistrada V4 Voyagers: what it is and why Ducati is relaunching it in 2026
Traveling is not just about covering kilometers: it means turning a route into a memory and a memory into a story. With this spirit, Ducati announces the second edition of Multistrada V4 Voyagers, the international contest inviting owners of Ducati Multistrada V4 to share their adventures on the road.
The relaunch carries particular symbolic weight: the initiative comes in the Ducati Centenary, a year in which the Borgo Panigale brand celebrates a hundred years of passion, racing, technology, and motorcycle culture. And what better way to do it than by highlighting the real stories of those who live Ducati every day, away from the spotlight, but often in movie-like settings?
Who can participate and what type of content is needed
The contest is designed for motorcyclists who have chosen the Multistrada V4 as their travel companion. Participation revolves around submitting materials that narrate the experience: text, images, and/or videos capable of conveying the sense of the journey, the challenges, the discoveries, and above all, the emotion.
This is not a competition “only for professionals”: the idea is to bring out authenticity and passion. A mountain pass at dawn, a coastal road in the rain, a border crossed with adrenaline: these are details that, when put together, create a narrative that can inspire thousands of other motorcyclists.
The contest categories: six different ways to understand travel
One of the strengths of Multistrada V4 Voyagers is the category structure: Ducati does not seek a single “type” of adventure but recognizes that motorcycle travel can take many different forms. Therefore, the contest includes six thematic categories designed to gather heterogeneous experiences: from long-distance raids to more intimate routes, from off-road explorations to trips in pairs or groups.
This setup helps in two ways: on one hand, it allows participants to fit into the “container” that best suits their style; on the other hand, it makes it easier for the community to find similar stories and take concrete inspiration for organizing their next itinerary.
Selection, jury, and visibility: what happens to the best stories
The submitted stories are evaluated by a jury associated with Ducati, aiming to select the most significant tales for each category. In addition to narrative value, the ability to convey the sense of the journey, the originality of the route, the coherence of the material (text/photo/video), and adherence to the Multistrada spirit count: versatility, adventure, riding pleasure, and a desire to discover.
The winners receive not only recognition: Ducati aims to give visibility to the selected stories through its channels, transforming them into editorial content capable of fostering the culture of two-wheeled travel. In practice, your itinerary can become an “emotional map” for other motorcyclists.
Why Multistrada V4 is the natural protagonist of this contest
That Ducati has chosen the Multistrada V4 as the centerpiece of a contest dedicated to travel is not surprising. The Multistrada is, by philosophy, a “multi” motorcycle: born to alternate asphalt and dirt roads, tourism and spirited riding, commuting and long crossings. In the V4 family, the idea of total motorcycle has further strengthened, becoming a platform that many motorcyclists choose as their only bike for everything.
In this context, Multistrada V4 Voyagers is not just marketing: it is a way to gather real-world evidence, narrated by real users, on how this motorcycle is used in the real world.
Expert comment: Przemek Gąsiorowski (moto-trips.com)
Przemek Gąsiorowski, editor-in-chief of moto-trips.com: “Contests like Multistrada V4 Voyagers work when they center on the journey, not performance. The most interesting thing is that Ducati, in its Centenary year, chooses to celebrate people and their stories: it’s a strong message for the community. My advice? Don’t look for the ‘perfect postcard’. Share what went wrong, what you learned, why you chose that road. That’s where true inspiration comes from — and often it’s also what a jury remembers most.”
How to prepare an effective story (and useful for other motorcyclists)
If the goal is to share an experience that leaves a mark, it’s worth building the material with a minimum of method. Here’s a simple outline that works almost always:
- Context: where the idea for the trip comes from and why that particular route.
- Itinerary: main stops, mileage, timing, type of roads.
- Key moments: an unexpected event, a meeting, a landscape, a sudden decision.
- The motorcycle in the journey: what made the difference (comfort, load capacity, behavior on different surfaces).
- Practical advice: what you would do the same and what you would change.
Additionally, for photos and videos: it’s better to have a few coherent and readable contents than a huge quantity without a narrative thread.
The value of the Ducati Centenary: when the brand's history meets the stories of motorcyclists
The Ducati Centenary is not just an anniversary: it’s an opportunity to reaffirm an identity built on passion and innovation. With Multistrada V4 Voyagers, Ducati takes this celebration out of museums and official events and puts it on the roads of the world, where the brand's history intertwines with the personal stories of motorcyclists.
For travelers, it’s also an invitation to do something often postponed: organize memories and turn them into a story. Because GPS tracks fade, but a good story remains.
