Gear & Setup

The right bike, setup, and gear won’t guarantee a perfect trip, but they sure make it easier when things go sideways. Here’s where I break down what’s worked for me (and what hasn’t), from motorcycle set up, to packing the essentials without weighing yourself down.

About Me

IMG-20230402-WA0051_edited_edited.jpg

I first rolled into Mexico in 2001, crossing the border by car and catching the bug for the open road. A few years later, I lived in San José del Cabo for a year, then road-tripped my way across the country until, in 2019, I found my true ride: exploring Mexico by motorcycle. Since then, I’ve clocked over 55,000 km through mountains, deserts, jungles, and coasts, and have still only scratched the surface. Now I call Mérida, Yucatán my part-time base, where I’m opening a coworking space for digital nomads when I’m not chasing tacos, dodging topes, and finding the next great ride.
