Are you a travel addict? If you are, and even if you’re not, you might have some questions about motorcycle travel. Like, how long should you wait before you take a new bike on an extended trip? What’s the best way to carry water? If you’re not in to social media, what other ways can you connect with riders and travellers? And how do you deal with an overloaded motorbike?

Everyone’s had those days on a trip, where you find yourself stranded somewhere - maybe due to a breakdown or a mishap - some places you couldn’t wait to get out of and some you might have wanted to stay a few days extra. And something that might come in handy when you’re stuck in those places is some local slang. And then once you head out on the road again using some of that local jargon, you just might find that you’ve had the best days ever and want to ride forever.
