Established in 2022, the Lightweight Adventure Festival celebrates travel and trail riding in all lightweight forms. Back then, it was a rustic, authentic and stripped back experience, aiming was to bring 30 lightweight adventurers together. It was far more successful than anticipated and bought a community together! Now, the festival is aimed at travellers, adventurers and all those interested in the Lightweight Adventure scene. This is not a luxury boutique festival by any means. Instead, it peels back those layers of luxury just a little and gets back to basics. Now we're adventuring!

Kinga was born in 1981 in what was then Communist Poland, just before the start of Martial law. Her home town is Suwalki, located in the North-East region famous for its grand, serene lakes. After finishing her Engineering degree in Poland she immigrated to Australia. After a couple of years of living in the hustle and bustle of Sydney, working odd jobs, she finally found a job in the construction industry! Australia started to feel like home. A few years after that, she started thinking that I need to get out of the city more and, if I really wanted to explore this amazing country, I needed to be able to ride on dirt – so I purchased a BMW F800GS and I was an instant convert! Kinga has now been travelling the world for 7 years, we talk to her whilst she is taking a break at home in Australia, before restarting her travels in South America... @thedavidgoldmanphoto David Goldman Photography www.themotorcycleportraits.net Thanks for listening.

https://helmetinspection.co.uk/ "A helmet can be a costly purchase, and the thought of replacing it before it’s absolutely necessary often influences our outlook towards risk. Our decision-making can also be fuelled if we’ve never had to call on our helmet to save us from serious injury. If there’s little or no visible signs of damage, we’ve now got the perfect storm and it becomes easy to convince ourselves it’ll be okay. Out of sight, out of mind. When our founder accidentally dropped a new motorcycle helmet, he wanted to know if it would continue to perform as intended, or if he needed to retire the helmet and purchase a replacement. Is it still safe to use? The thought of shelling out for a replacement wasn’t appealing. Friends provided anecdotal evidence and further words of reassurance, all suggesting the helmet would be okay to continue to use: All very convincing … so the helmet continued to be used for another few months. But our man was far from convinced, and the doubt was creeping in when he was out on his bike. He took the helmet to his local retailer, and asked the OEM-trained technician to carry out an inspection. The retailer provided a thorough visual inspection and declared It should be fine As thorough as this visual inspection appeared to be, the result wasn’t convincing. What would happen if a different technician were to carry out another visual inspection on the same helmet? Would it still be the same result? He left the retailer’s premises with doubts and still lacked peace of mind. Is my helmet still safe to use? So, we fixed it for you. We’ve created a service that’s both affordable and convenient. And with an efficient 4-5 working days turnaround we don’t tie your helmet up at our lab for weeks on end. What About The Dropped Helmet? Safety-critical damage was identified during our test – and a new helmet was purchased. Does That Mean A Dropped Helmet Is Definitely Compromised? Absolutely not! Our man was just unlucky. Since we started providing our service in July 2021, we’ve tested thousands of customer helmets and the pass rate is currently 75%." Thanks for listening.

Tom Gould created "I like Motorbikes" back in 2017 as a way to share his thoughts, experiences and occasionally misadventures with motorbikes, providing a narrative that the people can get behind. He has always been passionate about all things mechanical but his love of motorbikes didn't really flourish until aged around 16. Although he didn't actually start riding one until he was 20 in 2013.
