In Issue 59 of Adventure Rider, I wrote about my journey into adventure riding. Like all things regarding adventure riding, even though we develop our skills and competencies, there will always be more to learn. My biggest nemesis, which I suggest is not mine alone, is sand. The rotten stuff brings out the whole fight-or-flight response in me with a stronger emphasis on the flight. If I am to do a planned adventure trip that includes central Australia, my response needs to be more fight. Fight the urge to run from sand but become more at ease and not drop the bike every 5 seconds.
