Both live lifestyles that are equal parts passion and hard work, and the joys they find through two wheels easily transcend the contrasts of their native cultures. Join the duo as they spend a week in the desert, enjoying the freedom and good times that only bikes (motorized or not) and zero obligations can provide.

    Wide Open was originally published in 2016 as a four-part series. The full-length version chronicles the week-long adventure in a seamless format.
