Adventure Rider Radio RAW – Motorcycle Roundtable

Why do motorcycle travelers often tell stories about going through North and South America, Africa and Australia, but hardly anything about communist countries such as Russia and China. Is it because of restrictions, border crossings, culture? And next up, comfort hacks. Do you have any unusual or unique practices for long-distance travel comfort? Perhaps you've learned some things through experiencing mental or physical discomfort. The RAW group shares what they’ve learned after countless hours spent riding and travelling.

What is Adventure Rider Radio RAW – Motorcycle Roundtable?

ARR RAW is a monthly adventure motorcycle roundtable from the creators of Adventure Rider Radio, featuring real conversations about adventure riding, motorcycle travel, trip planning, gear, rider skills, and life on the road.

Each episode brings together experienced adventure riders, industry experts, and long-distance travelers to share practical knowledge, honest opinions, and hard-earned lessons from the world of ADV and dual-sport motorcycling.

From packing and bike setup to route planning, riding techniques, and stories from remote trips, RAW covers the topics adventure motorcyclists actually talk about when they get together. It’s informative, unscripted, and built for riders who want to travel farther, ride better, and understand the why behind what they do on a motorcycle.
