About

As a mother with an empty nest, Laura was carving out a new life for herself. During a trip to Mexico, she made a spontaneous decision that would take her way out of her comfort zone and send her life in an unexpected direction. With no riding experience, she bought a scooter in a department store, and rode across the country with her partner, Karl, who rode a small motorcycle. They visited amazing places off the beaten path and met wonderful people, while dodging potholes and dead monkeys, and getting soaked in the rain. Come along for the ride on Laura's journey of personal growth, as she overcomes her fear and challenges herself in new ways.
