It’s Thursday afternoon, July 14th, 2022, in Marina Zea in Athens, Greece. It’s 87 degrees, and the humidity dampens my shirt; this, along with the tiny beads of sweat forming on my brow, is barely uncomfortable. However, what truly is taxing my comfort and patience is the state of my two-month journey in Southeastern Europe— […]
If you haven’t watched my Journeys Webcasts, tuned into the WorldRider.tv YouTube Channel, or listened to the WorldRider podcast, you may have missed my whacky and humbling fight with vertigo. It started June 13, 2020, amid the pandemic and still challenges me two years later. It’s often depressing. Vertigo kills the motorcycle urge. That night […]

My Deal With Vertigo—A WorldRider Challenge!
My motorcycle journeys have taken me all over Greece. From the Peloponesse to Zagoria, Thessaloniki, Athens, the Adriatic, and of course, the intoxicating islands of the Cyclades. In this short video, I share the experience of my explorations from the seat of my motorcycle, Doc. This is another classic WorldRider Moto Vlog where I share […]

Last week marked the 100th day (June 3) since Russia started an unprovoked war by bombarding Ukraine. And, Wow! It’s been some time since I’ve posted on the WorldRider travelogue. It’s no secret why. “Life In The Time of Corona”. Yeah, it’s the pandemic, dammit. Before we were locked down in early 2020, I shared […]

Riding from Ioannina Greece in the remote northeastern region of Epirus, I head into the Pindos Mountains to explore the traditional stone villages of Zagoria (aka Zagorohoria, Zagori) Just another day of riding the world in search of culture, cuisine, and connection. Ride with me. Many think Greece is beaches, islands, and sambuca. But I […]

There are a lot of great roads all over the world —to ride a motorcycle or drive a car. But riding THE MANI in the GREEK PELOPONNESE is one of my best motorcycle rides—ever. Perhaps it was the quiet, desolate, arid, and peaceful environment. Or perhaps it was the colors, clouds, and craggy cliffs. No […]

My motorcycle is still waiting for me in Greece. I’m waiting for the right time to get on the road again. Until then, I’m stateside and currently living and loving San Diego. Just over a month ago, I announced that I was giving ten copies of the new softcover version of my book “FORKS: A […]
