From frostburn to sunbite, it's all about the rides that have significantly impacted our motorcycle knowledge and experience. Brian, Robin and Joanne deep dive into the machines and journeys that shaped their riding worlds. Brian points to a Suzuki GS850G and the off-road lessons of a KLR while stressing the importance of keeping loose on terrible roads to maintain balance and control.

Listener questions touch on handling unexpected throttle issues, Brian offering technical insights into potential causes such as position sensor glitches. Joanne joins the discussion to window shop new rides, namely CFMoto's Ibex and Royal Enfield's Himalayan. Both have specs that cater to her riding needs.

The tale of George Wyman's arduous journey peels back time through Nevada's old railroad towns, applying motor oil as a frostbite solution before a sunburn in Utah's desert expanse. But first, he's opportunistically overbilled for gasolEne ... a tapestry of self-discovery through two-wheeled exploits across challenging terrain.
