Travel Logs

I do my best to travel as much as I can, preferably on a motorcycle. I’ve kept pictures and videos mostly to have something to look back on as time goes on, but for bigger trips they’ve also been used to help friends & family follow along. As time goes on I definitely appreciate having a record of the places I’ve been, my progress as a rider, and how I’ve refined by bike & equipment setups.

Each post has some combination text, GPS logs, pictures, and video. I’m definitely not a professional writer, photographer, or videographer; so don’t expect too much.
