Episode 33: Adventure Riding with Jose and Brannen
Description
Episode 33 | Motorcyclist Map Fall Rally – Adventure, Expectations & Reality
We're coming to you from the 2026 Motorcyclist Map Fall Rally at the Motorcycle Inn in Kodak, Tennessee!
In this episode of the Binge Moto Podcast, Bryan is joined by Brannen Butts of Action Motorcycles and Jose Peralta to recap a weekend of adventure riding, great conversations, unpredictable weather, and a few unexpected detours.
We kick things off with our experiences on Friday's Adventure Test Ride, discussing the different levels of ADV riding, the challenges we encountered, and how expectations don't always match reality once the pavement ends.
Unfortunately, Mother Nature had other plans for Saturday. Extreme weather forced us to cancel our planned ride, but it gave us plenty of time to talk motorcycles.
Topics include:
- Friday's Adventure Test Ride: The good, the bad, and the challenging.
- Different levels of adventure riding and knowing your limits.
- ADV expectations vs. reality: Are we buying into the marketing hype?
- Our disappointment over Saturday's weather-related cancellation.
- Trading a $30,000 Ducati Multistrada for a 500cc Honda: What do you gain, and what do you give up?
- A sneak peek at our upcoming Cycle Cinema episode, where Bryan and Brannen revisit Bruce Brown's legendary 1971 motorcycle documentary On Any Sunday.
- And because we can't talk motorcycles all the time, our thoughts on HBO's Lanterns heading into the season finale.
Whether you're an experienced adventure rider, just getting started, or simply enjoy talking motorcycles with friends, there's something here for everyone.
