I’m breaking blog silence to say: Today is my 10 year “Roadiversary.” TEN. YEARS. On May 5th in 2014, I left on a ride that would change the way I saw the world and shift the course my life far, far off the beaten path. With each passing anniversary,...

To whoever still follows, I hope this update finds you healthy, safe, and sane enough. I realize it’s been quiet here for months; the global pandemic has affected us all in different ways. I must admit, as a professional artist, I smugly assumed I had a leg up on...

Strange days are here. I’m not here to repeat the news, but in light of the global pandemic I’m postponing my overland riding plans this spring. For a while, I desperately held onto hope that the outbreak would even out in time for my return flight to Europe, but...

Whoops, we’re already most of the way through January 2020 and I haven’t made official announcements for riding and travel?! I wish this post was more substantial, but winter threw some hard curveballs and I’m still getting my wheels back under me. Continued travel does favor a degree of...

Here’s my itinerary for winter 2018-19. Old Blue won’t be with me this winter, but here’s to some adventures on foot, or on borrowed/rented wheels! As always, most updated photos will appear on my Instagram, and please say hi if you find yourself in the same part of the...

Hello. Radio silence has almost become the new norm here, but I haven’t come to a rest. I have new travel stories, on Vespas even. Here are two bits of news, while those stories take their final form. Flickr has announced changes to their free service, with a 1000 photo...

I know this is jumping around a bit in the overall narrative, but I wanted to get my summer riding schedule posted for anyone who might want to say, “Hi!” Suffice to say, Serenity’s engine swap was successful, she’s all in one piece again, and running great! A huge...
