Extremes Beyond the Screen: Roughly Riding the Silk Road

Attempting to navigate a world of trends with timeless style.

Past trips are calling, dots need joining, then this analogue author goes off track, against the flow and the algorithm of the adventure-app travellers. Ride with this weary and rebellious road warrior back in time, armed with maps and aptitude.

What to expect? No idea - that’s the point, from Eastern Europe to the stans and the Pamir Highway. Into a feral world where dormant survival instincts stir.

The journey will be in tents, riding alongside border fences, pushing luck, pulled by police, freezing altitudes, furnace cities, empty spaces and unpopulated places, where the wild roam with no signal.

While the planet’s population blindly scrolls, this rider looks for a balance, dropping out, riding high and reaping unfiltered rewards reserved for those who look beyond the screen.

Riding solo, unsupported and without sponsorship on a 25 year on KLR 650 motorcycle through:

BulgariaTurkeyGeorgiaRussia – Chechnya – DagestanKazakhstanUzbekistanTajikistanKyrgyzstan Then prepare as the extremes accelerate - knowing limitations, ignoring them and finding solace on the other side.
