— Sean Flanagan
Northern India.
Three things that shape every journey.
Your Machine
What’s the right bike? The one that works for you. The choices are only limited by your budget and imagination, and all have implications. Big trips have been done on every size, style and vintage of motorcycle imaginable.
Your Equipment
Gear decisions abound, from minimalist loadouts on a shoestring budget, to everything and the kitchen sink. Sometimes less is more, and sometimes less is simply less. From navigation and communication to safety and shelter, sort out what you need, and what you only think you need, to complete your journey.
Your Self
When the weather turns, the road deteriorates, and the situation gets complicated, your mindset is the variable you can actually control. That’s what determines whether a hard day becomes a good story or just a bad one.
