Meet Marc, founder of Nohô and motorcycle enthusiast

My name is Marc, I’m 55 years old, and I’m a business owner. Motorcycling has been a passion of mine since the age of 14, to the point of making it my profession: I’ve launched several specialist motorcycle stores. At the same time, I’m also the founder of Nohô, a platform dedicated to sharing and discovering passions.

My passion for motorcycling began when I got my first bike at the age of 14. My cousin used to ride for fun, and my grandfather, who had been a motorcycle scout during the Second World War, was a great inspiration to me.
What I particularly like about motorcycling is the unique feeling of freedom and independence it gives me. I also appreciate the mechanical noise of engines, the sound that vibrates to the rhythm of the road.

I rode a lot with friends in my youth. Today, I prefer to travel by motorcycle, often in France or Europe, with my wife.
When I lived in Paris, the motorcycle was also a practical, unrestricted means of escaping the hustle and bustle of the city. It was a daily bubble of freedom.

Without a doubt, our trips to Ireland with my wife. We went twice, and it was absolutely magnificent. The scenery, the roads, the atmosphere… everything was perfect.

Yes, I’m also passionate about cars. I studied in this field and worked in it for several years.
Apart from that, I love the cinema: I try to go several times a month. Music is also an important part of my life, even though I don’t play an instrument. I simply couldn’t do without it!

Yes, in 2025, I’m planning a road trip to Germany. The aim is to visit some car museums, but also to ride on the famous Nürburgring circuit.

I also want to explore my new region, Normandy, by motorcycle. The landscapes and small roads are perfect for this type of adventure.

In 2026, my wife and I plan to attend the Tourist Trophy on the Isle of Man, a legendary event in the world of motorcycling. It’s an unbelievable course where riders ride at up to 300 km/h through villages and small country roads. For many bikers, it’s a dream come true. We’ll be spending around ten days there, living this unique experience.
