Dirt & Duffel

A motorcycle travel journal built on real miles — real routes, real bike work, real gear, ridden and tested before it's written up. Currently in transit. First dispatch is in the edit bay.

25°46′N 80°12′W MIAMI, FL · MILE 0 · EST. 2026

The Manifest

Trip Vlogs

Multi-day rides, shot and cut from the road — not a highlight reel stitched together after the fact.

Route-Planning Craft

The actual work behind a route — waypoints, GPX files, the calls made at a fork in the road.

Bike Diagnostics Diary

Running notes on the Honda Africa Twin Adventure Sports ES and the Yamaha Super Ténéré — what breaks, what gets fixed, and where.

Gear in Practice

Klim kit and the rest of the loadout, judged after it's been rained on and packed away, not unboxed on camera.

The Gold Wing Search

An ongoing search, told as it unfolds.

First Dispatch

MIAMI, FL 25°46′N 80°12′W → NEW ORLEANS, LA 29°59′N 90°05′W → SAN ANTONIO, TX 29°26′N 98°30′W

Two archive rides — Miami to New Orleans and New Orleans to San Antonio — are being cut into the first posts right now. Footage first, then the road logs behind them.

Next tentpole ride, once the archive is out: Sierra Nevada / Wyoming.

Rides Logged

Real miles already in the bank. Full route write-ups — waypoints, dates, GPX — land here one by one as the archive gets processed.
