  Motorcycle First Aid Kits: What to Carry and What Not to Miss 23.07.2026 1val 18min

  Why a motorcycle first aid kit should be part of your riding gear — and why the kit itself is only part of being prepared.A motorcycle first aid kit often gets treated like an extra — something for remote trips, cautious riders, or people with medical training.

Not just a small pouch of bandages, but a kit that makes sense for motorcycling, the places we ride, and the situations we may come across.🔗 Show Notes & Links: Find photos, links, and resources related to this episode on our website at Adventure Rider Radio.🎧 Subscribe & Never Miss an Episode: We release new episodes of ARR every week on Thursday and of RAW on the 21st of every month—full of inspiring stories, expert advice, and insight from the world of adventure motorcycling.

  RIDER SKILLS: The Power of the Dab 02.07.2026 55min

  Motorcycle Camping Gear: Why Ordinary Camping Gear Isn’t Enough 25.06.2026 1val 53min

  How to Choose the Best Camping Setup for the Way You RideBefore you start comparing motorcycle tents, sleeping pads, stoves, chairs, pack sizes, and weights, there is an important question to answer. In this episode, Ben Williams from Moto Camp Nerd talks about a simple way to think through your motorcycle camping setup before you start buying gear, so your choices are based on the way you actually ride and travel, not just someone else’s packing list.

  Ted Simon on Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance 18.06.2026 44min

  Why Robert Pirsig’s Famous Motorcycle Book Mattered to Him — And Why it Didn’tTed Simon is best known as the author of Jupiter’s Travels, one of the most influential motorcycle travel books ever written. Robert Pirsig’s Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is another book that has long held a strange place in motorcycling culture: widely known, often recommended, and perhaps just as often left unfinished. In this conversation, Ted talks about finally reading Pirsig’s famous book and why it matters to him in a way listeners might not expect. Is it really a motorcycle book? Why has it stayed in the minds of riders for so many years? And what does motorcycle maintenance mean when the machine beneath you is not just a symbol, but the thing that determines whether the journey continues? What begins with one famous motorcycle book soon opens into Ted’s own memories of travel, breakdowns, repair, and the very practical reality of keeping a journey alive when there is no easy answer and no one else to do the work.🔗 Show Notes & Links: Find photos, links, and resources related to this episode on our website at Adventure Rider Radio.🎧 Subscribe & Never Miss an Episode: We release new episodes of ARR every week on Thursday and of RAW on the 21st of every month—full of inspiring stories, expert advice, and insight from the world of adventure motorcycling.

  The Motorcycle Sidecar Journey That Changed Everything 14.05.2026 1val 4min

  Eva Strehler had already learned what drew her to the road on a motorcycle: freedom, movement, and a way of living outside the usual shape of things. Then she built a sidecar for her dog, Polly, and headed east.

  Mexico Motorcycle Travel: What Riders Need to Know 26.03.2026 48min

  Mexico is one of the easiest international adventures for riders from the U.S. and Canada—close enough to reach without a major expedition, yet different enough to feel like true travel. From Baja desert tracks to mountain twisties, high country, and coastal roads, the riding is as varied as the culture, food, and landscapes. Spencer Conway has spent the past several years living in Mexico and riding more than 66,000 kilometres through 24 states. Speaking from his home in Oaxaca, he shares what makes Mexico such a compelling destination for motorcycle travel, why he stayed, what many riders miss about traveling there, and why the country offers far more depth and variety than most riders realize.🔗 Show Notes & Links: Find photos, links, and resources related to this episode on our website at Adventure Rider Radio.🎧 Subscribe & Never Miss an Episode: We release new episodes of ARR every week on Thursday and of RAW on the 21st of every month—full of inspiring stories, expert advice, and insight from the world of adventure motorcycling.

  The Fear of Riding in Front of Others and How to Work Through It 19.03.2026 1val 4min

  There’s a side of motorcycle training almost no one talks about — the mental pressure of learning new skills in front of other riders. Why can training make you feel like you’ve suddenly gotten worse before you get better? Why does confidence sometimes drop even when your skills are improving? Through rider Erik Wilkinson’s experience, along with insights from expert trainer Chris Birch and Monica Birch, we explore what’s really happening in your mind during training — and how to manage it so you come out a stronger, more confident rider.🔗 Show Notes & Links: Find photos, links, and resources related to this episode on our website at Adventure Rider Radio.🎧 Subscribe & Never Miss an Episode: We release new episodes of ARR every week on Thursday and of RAW on the 21st of every month—full of inspiring stories, expert advice, and insight from the world of adventure motorcycling.
