97: The Dark Side of Long Term Motorcycle Travel

Being self-reliant can be likened to having insurance—an ability to take care of oneself if things go awry. There's nothing inherently wrong with accepting help; it's a human instinct, and in the context of motorcycle travel, assistance often leads to friendship and discovery. However, it raises the question of wisdom and responsibility to travel as a dependent, relying too much on others. In this episode of RAW, we discuss ways to become a self-reliant traveler with topics including camping and accommodations, route planning, financial preparedness and repairs, and more.

95: Cooking on Multi-Day Camping Trips and Protecting Gear While Hiking

Two important things to consider when planning your trip are how you’re going to finance your adventure and how to best equip yourself to handle an emergency. While it's not impossible to fund yourself while travelling on a motorcycle, it does require careful planning, budgeting, and adaptability. Many travellers have successfully navigated expenses and income by being resourceful and flexible. The RAW panel discusses novel ways to make money on the road and some important things to keep in mind while doing so. And we also talk about being prepared to handle emergencies while travelling. But, before discussing how a motorcycle overlander prepares for emergencies on a trip, it’s important to understand what constitutes an emergency. We’ll also cover what should be planned, anticipated, or prepared for, and what can be left to chance.
