Italian to English translations [Non-PRO]
Sports / Fitness / Recreation / modo di dire | | Italian term or phrase: Saltare in sella | In questo caso si tratta di saltare in sella a una moto, quindi dubito che di per sè il termine "saddle" possa essere utilizzato. Sto cercando un modo di dire simile o con lo stesso significato in inglese, che si avvicini quanto più possibile a "sei pronto a saltare in sella con noi?"
La frase ha funzione di motto per coinvolgere il pubblico a unirsi all' "avventura" dell'azienda in questione. |

| | Hop on? | Explanation:
If it's a motorcycle, I'd go for this. Seat is the correct word for sella, BTW, but you can say 'in the saddle' (back in the saddle, feeling good in the saddle etc.)

the complete sentence would be "ready to hop on?"

| Grading comment Thanks Claudia, I think this translation suits the context. "Ride with us" sounded also good, but the verb "to ride" can be misunderstood easily - so I go for your translation.
