Adventure Travel is more than miles, it’s joy

What an action-packed September! It was another great year at Ohio's largest ADV rally, Wailin' Wayne Weekend in Nelsonville. We led some awesome groups on loops which featured Sections 4 & 5 of the Great Ohio Adventure Trail. Later in the month, we headed up to Ohio's Amish Country for the 6th edition of Laura's Camp N Ride to visit Bat Nest Road and hit GOAT Section 7 & 8. Next on the calendar is the 4th annual Section 5 Fall Camp N Ride in which final preparations are being made and we look forward to seeing all of you soon.

Heading to @wailinwayneweekend one week from today? Check out the WWW GOAT Loops, available as a self-guided adventure or a guided ride led by myself throughout the weekend. All routes are adventure touring routes (no Wayne Pass required), rated beginner to intermediate in difficulty, and big bike friendly.

Get ready for the 4th annual Fall Camp N Ride on Section 5 of the Great Ohio Adventure Trail! Join us this October for a weekend of some of the best adventure touring in the state, deep in the heart of Morgan County. We'll have two days of riding this year which means more gravel, more dirt, and more exploration. Whether you’re returning to catch up with old friends around the campfire or joining us for your very first GOAT Camp N Ride, this weekend is built for the adventure riding community. Let’s give the 2026 adventure riding season the send-off it deserves. See you at the Camp N Ride!

Had a great time running the small bore detour with @tallboysandtrackmasters and @monkeyboysoh at last weekend's FDSR 304 Detour! The Honda XL80 slowly but surely made it through every obstacle and rocky trail we came across... Little bike, lots of fun!
