Show Notes

In 2019, while reading a motorcycle travel book, Sal was saving for an extended trip when Ethan asked if she planned to ride around the world. Without hesitation, she replied, “maybe.” That moment set them on an extraordinary journey across Africa and the Middle East, encountering breakdowns, roadblocks, flash floods, and theft. They navigated war zones, endured malaria, and battled relentless mechanical failures, yet the kindness of strangers and the thrill of adventure kept them going. Now, after crossing eleven African countries, they push toward the northernmost point they can reach, knowing neither will be the first to utter, “I quit.” Their journey proves that adventure isn’t about having the best gear—it’s about the determination to keep moving forward.
