119: RAW's 10th Anniversary: How Motorcycle Travel Has Changed Over the Past Ten Years
From Adventure Rider Radio RAW – Motorcycle Roundtable by Adventure Rider Radio | Adventure Motorcycling

About this episode
The panel reflects on the evolution of motorcycle travel over the past decade and the impact of external influences on personal travel motivations.
How has motorcycle travel changed over the past ten years — not just the gear and tech, but how does constant exposure to other riders’ trips and highlight reels reshape our motivation? Comparison is everywhere now, whether we want it or not, and it has a way of steering our travel choices without us noticing. The panel reflects on what first sparked their desire to travel, how that spark has evolved, and how to stay grounded in their own reasons for riding instead of chasing outside influence. Listener Question from Briah Grohs: For your 10th anniversary show of RAW, ask each member of the panel what stands out in their mind that they learned from being on the show. 🔗 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.
