What Solo Motorcycle Travel Does to You

What Solo Motorcycle Travel Does to You is a motorcycle-travel film from Ride Thru, selected for its journey-led storytelling. There’s a difference between being alone and being lonely. Riding solo forces you to confront things that are easy to avoid when someone else is there — your fears, your limits, your discipline, and whether you’re actually as self-reliant as you think you are. While riding a motorcycle across all 47 prefectures of Japan, I’ve spent a lot of time alone. Some days have been incredible. Others have pushed me well outside my comfort zone.
