About this episode

The episode discusses essential habits and routines that can help prevent problems during motorcycle trips.

The little habits that you develop on a motorcycle trip can sometimes be the things that keep your experience from going sideways. This month on RAW, we’re talking about the routines and systems we’ve picked up over years of travelling by motorcycle — what we do at the end of the day, what we check before heading out in the morning, and the habits we rely on along the way when it comes to fuel, maintenance, packing, documents, electronics, food, water and security. Some of these habits came from experience. Others came from learning the hard way when something went wrong. There’s no single checklist that works for every rider or every trip. Instead, we’re sharing the things we actually do, why we do them, and the small routines that might just save you some trouble on your next ride. ARR RAW round-table discussions with motorcycle adventure travellers - featuring Grant Johnson, Sam Manicom, Shirley Hardy-Rix, Brian Rix, Michelle Lamphere and Jim Martin.
