Kitty On The Tank

Have you ever wanted to point your bike toward the horizon and just...go?In this episode, we're talking all about riding solo, why we love it, what scares us, how we prepare, and why we think every rider should experience it at least once in their own way.Gina takes us back to her 2017 100-day sabbatical, when she spent nearly 90 days crossing the country on two wheels. With no interstates, no reservations, and no real plan beyond following the road, she discovered that solo travel isn't just about where you end up, it's about learning to trust yourself.As Gina gets ready to head out on another solo adventure from New Orleans to Sacramento, we dive into both the inner game and the outer game of riding alone. We talk about confidence, fear, excitement, and how the inner and outer game dance. We also uncover a sweet little nugget about the “spark” and we wonder…what’s your spark?Of course, we also get into the practical stuff, packing (and overpacking), our favorite can't-live-without gear, why rain gear is basically a good luck charm, and how to pack the equivalent of 4 bottles of wine into your tank bag. I mean….Whether you're a seasoned solo rider, you've been thinking about taking your first trip alone, or you're just curious what draws us back to the open road every chance we get, we hope this conversation leaves you feeling inspired to chase your own adventure be it in a car, on a bicycle, or on your two beautiful feet. We'd love to hear from you!
