FortNine KZread star Ryan F9, joins regular hosts James and Bryn in this special episode of the ABR Garage live from the Adventure Bike Rider Festival 2022.
(Tickets are now on sale for 2023 ABR Festival where there'll be even more adventure biking megastars like Ryan F9 appearing on stage. Get your tickets here: www.abrfestival.com/tickets/ ).
A crowd of ABR Festival goers packed out the Harley-Davidson Campfire Tent to listen to Ryan F9 and the lads discuss: what's all the fuss about adventure bikes and adventure biking?
During the chat we discover why Ryan F9's F 800 GS motorbike gets so much abuse, how riding in Canada and Europe compares, and what did James and Ryan think of the Ducati Desert X when they rode it on the ABR Festival's AX41 Adventure Trail.
We also find out how Bryn got so buff, why Ryan uses a flip-phone from the '90s, and what James thinks Suzuki should have called the GSX-S1000 GT to stop people mistaking it for a printer.
Ryan F9 also gives a behind the scenes insight into the making of FortNine motorcycle videos, and all three of the lads discuss why adventure bikes like the BMW R 1250 GS, Ducati Multistrada V4, and Honda Africa Twin can't help but inspire a sense of wanderlust.
This live episode of the ABR Garage, the podcast from Adventure Bike Rider, was filmed in the magnificent grounds of the Ragley Hall Estate in Warwickshire.
