Everything motorcycle overlanding interview with Graeme Bell from Expedition Portal and Overland Journal

Everyday interesting Q&A interview with the one and only Graeme Bell from A2AExpedition fame on behalf of Expedition Portal. How we started, the motivation, how to stay on the road, and all the challenges that go with the territory.
Graeme has a knack for asking the type of questions that is not something that is obvious until someone actually asks the question. What is normal for us might not be normal for other people, with that, some of his questions are topics we had to put some thought behind.
“Michnus and Elsebie are explorers with an insatiable thirst for authentic adventure. They chose to ride two medium-size motorcycles and have established themselves as experts in the field of motorcycle travel. They are people of great humor and integrity, the salt of the earth.
Their photography stands out from the crowd, partially due to technical excellence, but mostly due to their eye for the culturally exceptional and the relationship of trust which they establish with their human subjects. Michnus and Elsebie are not interested in bucket lists or the ticking of boxes; they ride for the love of travel and immerse themselves deep within the countries they explore.”
