Ep. 732: Riding a Motorcycle to Races All Over the World - Revisited - Lyndon Poskitt

-
Powered by RedCircle Originally aired  October 06, 2016 Lyndon Poskitt is an accomplished motorcycle racer and mechanical engineer from North Yorkshire in the United Kingdom. He had an accident in 2013 that landed him in the hospital just long enough to contemplate how he was spending his time in life. This started Lyndon on his 2 1/2 year journey called Races to Places where he rides his modified KTM 690 Rally around the world entering it into local rally races. I caught up with Lyndon in El Paso, TX as he prepares to continue on the next leg of R2P down into South America to compete in the 2017 Dakar Rally in January.

Ep. 559: Eleven Years Living at Sea and Counting - Brian Trautman

Have you ever wanted to just quit your job, sell your house and head out on an adventure for a decade? Yeah, me too. Today we chat with someone who actually did that and is still doing it, Brian Trautman.  After being unsatisfied with the “perfect job”, house, car, etc., he came across a book about sailing across the ocean and knew that was what he needed to do with his life.  He sold everything he owned, bought a boat, and sailed to New Zealand from Seattle. That first experience started a trend that would extend for more than a decade and lead to countless adventures that have been chronicled on his YouTube channel: Sailing SV Delos , gaining over 100 million views in the process.  To date, Brian has visited 6 continents, 40 countries, and crossed every ocean on his 53 foot Ketch.  Enjoy! youtube.com/svdelos Instagram: @svdelos Facebook: @svdelos svdelos.com Athletic Brewing Company is a pioneer in craft non-alcoholic beer.
