I will start

I've been across the U.S. a few times now, but nothing even comes close to 2012. that’s when i first heard about the Trans America Trail, an offroad trail that runs from North Carolina all the way to Oregon. the second i learned about it, i knew i had to do it
no one would go with me, so i bought some camping gear, a GPS, and some paper trail maps on some random online website I ordered and just went left, solo. no real plan, just me figuring it out as i went

That trip honestly made me into the man i am today. it pushed me in ways nothing else ever has and shaped the next 10+ years of my life after it. how i travel, how i think, the risks i’m willing to take… all of it goes back to that ride
Ive done other cross country / long distance motorcycle trips since then, but nothing has ever hit the same as that first T.A.T run when i was younger.

and I just saw that Sam Correro, the guy who created the whole trail, passed away last week. kinda hit me weird and had me thinking back on that whole experience and how much it meant to me

drop your story below, I actually wanna hear it 👇
