And slowly started like trekking my way up to the top of the highest point from Center Earth.

And slowly I got up and there's like alpacas as you get a bit higher and the snow starts to come in.

It's cloudy and foggy.

And I was worried I wouldn't be able to see the peak because it's all kind of snowed in.

And it's really high up so the air is really breathing like this and come to the top.

And the bike's choking along.

Episode 1882, Kicks Marshall, riding a 650KLR all the way down to Ushawa.

Hello everyone and welcome to the Adventure Sports podcast.

I'm excited about today's episode because I have not done a motorcycle episode in years and years and years.

And that's because, of course, Mason had the show and I wasn't doing it.

But now I'm excited to do it, especially since I recently renewed my interest in motorcycles.

And we have a motorcycle mega adventurer with us today.

Kix Marshall, he jumped on a KLR, 650, and rode to Ashwaya, the southern tip of Argentina,

and we're going to talk about this epic trip all through South America.

But he also has been traveling all over Canada, putting together stories and recipes and a cookbook.

And it's called Cooked in Canada.

And I'm really interested to see what his experiences are, especially with unique Canada cuisine.

I mean, we don't talk about food a lot on the Adventure Sports podcast, but hey, food is adventure too. So I'm really excited for today. Kicks, welcome to the program. Hey, Kurt, thanks for having me on. How's it going over there in your side of the world? Ah, it's very, very good. Are you in Canada now? At this moment, I'm in Canada. We do travel quite a bit and we're away for a bit this winter, but at this moment for the three months that Canada gets summer every year, I'd like to be around for them.

That's great.

You know, when I, I'll start with this because then you'll have a little context.

When I was 17 years old, a buddy and I jumped in my 1968 Volkswagen Beetle,

and we drove from Oklahoma.
