"I can't tell you how many times I've been robbed, attacked, thrown in the air by giant animals, beaten by riot police or lost in the middle of a sea with no map. What I can tell you is that for some reason after everything I've been through and everything I've seen, packing three big American guys into one tiny Indian rickshaw and driving non-stop through a variety of the world's most extreme environments, sounds like a good plan!"

"In December 2002 at the age of 23, Travis and I sold all of our possessions and boarded a flight to Alaska (with no $$, no experience, no guaranteed job, and no place to stay) to do the world's deadliest job; crab fishing in the Bering Sea. Dozens of countries, countless flights/busses/trains/taxis, a few riots, several raging Spanish bulls, a voyage up the Adriatic coast with no map, armed robbery at the hands of the Romanian military, and one death threat by a Bosnian freedom fighter later the Alaskan experience seems tame by comparison. So, driving a 150cc beer can over the Himalayan range and across the Indian sub-continent during monsoon season makes perfect sense."
