If there was ever a place to ride that sounded so wild, so beautiful, so outrageous that you find yourself feeling that it must be fictitious, then that place could only be Namibia. It's a country so remarkable and diverse that it takes the crown as not only one of the best countries to motorcycle through in Africa, but in the entire world.
Before I arrived in Namibia, I'd heard a lot about it from friends, colleagues, and locals I'd met on the route through the African continent. The conversations always went the same way: "Oh, you're heading south, make sure you leave enough time for Namibia. You'll be blown away!" It was intriguing considering most of these conversations took place over 2,000 miles and several countries from Namibia. What made this place so special? Why were people suggesting I hightail it across a continent to make sure I could spend the lion's share of my trip in this one country? There was only one way to find out.

CHASING PEAKS IN THE HIMALAYAS
It was 2:00 a.m. on my fourth day in India. My eyes blinked open in the dark of a hotel room in Drass, a town in the Himalayas on the Indian side of the border. Yesterday was our first day riding on a six-day trip through the Himalayas, and my brain could not process everything I'd seen and experienced.

MAKING MEMORIES
Kevin and I initially met in the Marines. We have been riding together for a few years, and riding BDRs the entire time. Our first attempt at a BDR was in Utah, where we were completely unprepared and significantly ignorant of our capabilities. It led to some interesting moments conquering Lockhart Basin where we developed our backcountry motto: “Less Gear and More Water.” We document our rides on our YouTube channel, “Be Gone for Good.”
