Barefoot water skiing is one of a kind sport. To be honest, this is always my best sport when it comes to skiing on the water. I like how it challenges me enough to stay engaged throughout the game. But there is much more to enjoy when barefooting, depending on your perspective and what you…
What was your first dirt bike ride experience like? Mine was pretty awful. I got debilitating blisters, which felt like giant holes in my hands. It was a painful experience, and I didn’t think I’d ever be a motocross rider. After all, it’s bad when you can’t ride because of blistered hands. Of course, I…
What are some of the most important motorcycle safety gear equipment? In my opinion, helmets and neck braces top the list in order of importance. They’re closely followed by the knee guards, elbow shins, and gloves. But for dirt bikes, it’s a bit interesting, especially seeing goggles ranking so high up and arguably as important…

What’s your experience with surfboard roof racks? Personally, I was never a big fan and always paranoid about fitting my Subaru with one. See, years back, I had an incident where my beloved Wavestorm Longboard somersaulted down Interstate 95. And no, I wasn’t going fast as you would think at the time; if anything, I’m…
Pedals are important on a bike. Personally, I usually look at the pedals with the same importance as the handlebars and grips because they’re the only couple of direct interfaces between the rider and the bike. But often, the pedals are neglected, and many riders are content with the stock pedals. And I get it;…
Are you considering touring Japan with your bike? Japan is one of the most attractive and often traveled countries in the world. Thanks to its iconic culture, countless volcanoes, fabulous coastline, and stunning landscapes that attract people from all walks of life. If you get an opportunity to bike tour Japan, you can be sure…
When I travel with my bike to different parts of the world, a lot of people usually ask me; how did you get your bicycle here? Did it cost you much money? But I understand them, flying with a bike seems to be an expensive and stressful undertaking. See, when I started doing long-distance cycle…
