Beyond Borders: An Unfiltered Motorcycle Adventure
In 2019, while reading a motorcycle travel book, Sal was saving for an extended trip when Ethan asked if she planned to ride around the world. Without hesitation, she replied, “maybe.” That moment set them on an extraordinary journey across Africa and the Middle East, encountering breakdowns, roadblocks, flash floods, and theft. They navigated war zones, endured malaria, and battled relentless mechanical failures, yet the kindness of strangers and the thrill of adventure kept them going. Now, after crossing eleven African countries, they push toward the northernmost point they can reach, knowing neither will be the first to utter, “I quit.” Their journey proves that adventure isn’t about having the best gear—it’s about the determination to keep moving forward.

Goals for Adventure Motorcycle Travel
As the year begins, many riders set New Year’s resolutions, often centred around sacrifice—cutting out indulgences, hitting the gym, or saving money by skipping small pleasures. All these resolutions centre around some sense of pain, which is why we often give up on our resolutions quickly. But what if your resolution fuelled your passion for two wheels instead? This year, aim for a win-win goal: plan one motorcycle adventure that stretches your comfort zone while enriching your life with unforgettable experiences. Research shows that setting specific, achievable goals significantly boosts success. So, why not resolve to finally go on that trip and let the journey be your reward? On this encore performance of Adventure Rider Radio, we go back to 2021, when Keith Futcher was on the show.

Father and Son Face the TAT - Changes Everything
The Trans America Trail was the first major motorcycle adventure for Randy Gorrell and his son, Brady. The trip, intended to honor a promise, was filled with challenges. Brady, a newly licensed rider with no dirt experience, struggled on the rugged terrain, while Randy, despite his road expertise, found the TAT to be unlike anything he had ever experienced before. Overloaded bikes, failed comms, and painful saddle sores by Day 3 tested their resolve, with Brady repeatedly dropping his bike. It was a rough start to their travels—one that would make most question whether to attempt another trip. Links: Photos and links related to this episode can be found in the on .

Hidden Roads of the Coast - Suzanne Jolly
For more than a decade, Suzanne Jolly had dreamed of her ultimate motorcycle adventure. Her idea was to load her motorcycle onto a boat that would drop her in a remote, boat-access-only area on the British Columbia coast. Once there, she could explore the vast network of logging roads that crisscross the Coast Mountains and ride in an area that few have ever seen. Because the area is so remote, she would need to take everything she required — bike, camping gear, and fuel — into the wilderness. However, her dream was put on the back burner when a brain injury turned her life upside down. After a long struggle with recovery, which included re-learning to ride a motorcycle, she decided to make her dream a reality by inviting a few other riders to join her in riding the hidden roads of the coast.

The Most Misunderstood Country in the World
Moin Khan, from Pakistan, has been passionate about motorcycles since childhood. While attending school in the United States, Moin was surprised by how little people knew about Pakistan, and much of what they did know seemed inaccurate. So, after finishing school, he decided to ride a motorcycle back to Pakistan, calling his journey ‘A Different Agenda’. His goal was to change perceptions about Pakistan, one encounter at a time. In the end, Moin was amazed by how the journey unfolded and by the kindness of the people he met, which beautifully challenged his own assumptions.
