Binge Moto Podcast – Episode 20: “Yalla Habibi” w/ Jon Ross (2 Wheel ADV)

This week on Binge Moto, we’re joined by Jon Ross from 2 Wheel ADV to break down “Yalla Habibi”—the new documentary from Ryan (FortNine) where he and two friends attempt to shatter the world circumnavigation record aboard Ducati Multistradas.

We get into the big question: do we actually think they pulled it off? From the pace, logistics, and fatigue factor to the reality of borders, breakdowns, and time lost in the chaos—nothing is off limits. We also share what we really thought of the film, what it gets right (and what it glosses over), and why endurance riding is equal parts obsession, discipline, and insanity.

From there, the conversation turns to the bigger debate: is chasing a record like this worth the risk? We talk mental strain, physical punishment, the danger of pushing too far, and what separates a legendary ride from a bad decision.

And because it’s Ducati… we wrap up with a brutally honest chat about maintenance costs, the realities of international motorcycle travel, and the unexpected struggle no one warns you about—finding a bathroom in Europe when you need one RIGHT NOW.

🎧 Ride. Talk. Repeat.
