Summary

On last month’s episode of RAW, the panel discussed some of the most iconic places in the world to ride a motorcycle and what they came up with was The 7 Wonders of the Motorcycle Travel World. And when debating the destinations that would make the cut, there were two routes that run somewhat parallel in South America that Michelle Lamphere felt must be included. So she suggested that although these routes are different and offer unique experiences, they could be done as a loop. And from that was born the Patagonia Loop. According to the RAW group of motorcycle travellers, this is one of the best riding experiences in the world. And the great thing is, you can fly there, rent a bike and experience much of it in just weeks. And to tell you more about it, we have Michelle Lamphere, RAW co-host, who has herself ridden the all new Patagonia Loop.

0:57.0	the idea of seven wonders came up.
1:00.0	And we thought, perfect, that's it.
1:02.0	So this is what we did. We had everyone come to the table with what they considered it to be the best motorcycle rides in the world. There was a lot of them. The best areas are routes. And then we worked at narrowing that list down to only seven.

1:21.0	and that was part of the fun fun but it was also necessary because we wanted to
