You are taking your suit around the world, can you tell us about your trip?
"I began the ride in Phoenix, AZ, USA on May 16th. I first made my way to San Diego to complete the entirety of Pacific Coast Highway. After reaching Vancouver and Vancouver Island, I began heading eastward, thus beginning the circumnavigation of the world. On my route to Newfoundland, I dipped back into the USA in Bozeman, MT, USA to serve as a groomsman at my friend’s wedding, Duluth, MN, USA to visit Aerostich, and Butler, PA, USA to visit an old friend. I am currently stopped in Montreal, Quebec, CAN to figure out the final details of shipping my motorcycle across the Atlantic to either Iceland or mainland Europe. As of writing this, I am on day 92 of the Kaʻapuni Honua/Round the World journey. The last major landmass eastward from my start point, and thus my finish line, is Aotearoa/New Zealand.
The logistics of a trip this big have been challenging, but the sights, sounds, places, and people I have met have left experiences and worldviews I could never replace. Peeling apart my motor’s top end in a Saskatchewan motel’s parking lot, the Pic River Tribe Powwow, a Tadoussac fisherman’s story of his father leading his shipwrecked crew back to land by navigating 12 miles of drifting sea ice… so many irreplaceable moments, and I haven’t even left North America yet… who knows what memories the rest of the trip will impart..."
