Luke Cuenco 03.17.23 As a native of the PNW (Pacific Northwest), I absolutely love to get out and explore the wealth of public land that we have access to in this region. Camping in the PNW can be great as the weather is largely cool enough throughout most of the year to allow you to have
Admittedly, the “gearing up” part was difficult for me. As a true gear junkie who’s collected and tested gear for a decade, it was hard to leave gear behind. Bulky and niche items with a single-use would have to stay home. Now that we’ve been on the road for 8 months, there are several items

Keith Lusher 03.15.23 Old Man Winter has certainly made himself at home here in the deep south. Overcast skies and daytime highs are making it hard for inshore fisherman to catch speckled trout in February. The Geoghegan Canal in Slidell, La. offers anglers a great opportunity to catch speckled trout in deep water Max Patrucco of
The Kia EV9 is a big deal. Look past the concept car styling and second-row seating to see just how big it is. It’s huge — literally. It’s also set to be the first three-row crossover to go on sale anywhere, filling a massive electric vehicle sales void. Back in 2021, Kia brought a new concept

The Revel Rodeo is in a category of one, through and through. It’s the first-ever bike with a fully 3D-printed carbon fiber downhill frame that’s viable.
