Brendon and Kira Hak have been living a nomadic lifestyle for the past six years. Kira has always had a passion for travel and Brendon for motorsports, so after a couple of life-altering events made them reevaluate what they were doing in their lives, they decided to do the big trip they had dreamed about. They spent years planning and in 2017 they set out for their motorcycle trip from Canada to Ushuaia. The plan was to be gone for about one year, but when they returned home after nearly two years they had a different perspective on life and they knew that travel was something they wanted to continue doing. If they wanted to keep going they knew that now was the time to make it happen, and if they could do it, then why wouldn’t they?

In 2017, Tim and Marisa Notier embarked on an epic journey around the world, riding a KTM motorcycle. They travelled through North and South America, followed by Africa. When the pandemic brought everything to a halt, they decided to stay in Kenya for a while, but returned to the United States when their visas expired. They then decided to head north to Alaska, but were still eager to continue their world adventure. After much consideration, they drew inspiration from their friends, Greg and Melanie Turp, and chose to explore Indonesia next, a country known for its hot and humid climate, bustling cities, and hospitable people.  You can find the photos and links related to this episode on our website adventureriderradio.com.

Growing up, James Barkman had a friend who always talked about riding from Alaska to Ushuaia. When he got the call that his friend's dream was about to become a reality, James was excited to join him on the trip. However, James suggested an even more adventurous twist to the plan: he and his two friends would combine the motorcycle trip with mountain climbing. This meant that they had to pack for both activities, which was a unique challenge. They had to include everything they would need for motorcycling as well as everything they’d need for high-altitude climbing. This trip was not for the faint of heart, as they dealt with unpredictable weather conditions and had to camp for extended periods of time. The adventure was peppered with moments of excitement, tension, and even a close encounter with death.
