There’s something romantic about the old way of doing things, which is why we wanted to share the story of some old friends loading up a 1964 Chevy and disconnecting from the world for a few weeks in Mexico. The trip was a celebration of their time together. One last hurrah. A symbolic death of an era before moving on to the next phases of their lives. We also followed another group of friends in Australia who built some inappropriate street bikes for a bold off-road adventure through Tasmania. With some dots on a map and no real plans, what happened along the way would be left to chance.  Getting lost. Breaking down. Taking the long way. Just let the adventure happen. Don’t try. 

When that illusive thing finally reveals itself, you’ll just know it. You’ll have no choice but to let it consume you. Like photographer Jack Antal, who captures visual poetry in his stunning images. Or the beautiful people who founded Riders for Health and Two Wheels For Life, two organizations dedicated to providing medical access via motorcycle in hard-to-reach communities in rural Africa, saving thousands of lives in the process. They found their purpose, and they’ve shown us the importance of acting on it. When it comes to you, through you, out of you, without trying. Try.
