Who is Lara? 🛠️🪖🏍️
Most of you know me for the bikes, but that’s only part of the story. Between being an Aeronautical Engineer and a Major in the Royal Engineers, my life is a constant balancing act of high-stakes engineering, military service, and racing.
I’m finally sharing how these three worlds collide and the journey that brought me here.

Catch a snippet of our talk on stage at the Adventure Bike Rider Festival, where we reflect on what it really takes to tackle a two-month cross-border journey as a team, and why we left the trip more proud of each other than ever.

We dive into:
* Backing each other through tough terrain across 8 countries
* Why we chose the TET and navigated the former Yugoslavia together
* Finding the balance between pushing hard off-road miles and stopping to enjoy the locals, the food, and the journey

Most friendships are tested by choosing a restaurant... ours was tested by riding the Trans Euro Trail all the way from the UK to Greece! 🏍️💨

Catch a snippet of our chat on stage at the Adventure Bike Rider Festival, where Maja and I dived into what it’s actually like to commit to a massive two-month cross-border journey together, why we chose the TET and how we balance pushing miles with actually enjoying the food, the locals, and the ride.

We were absolutely delighted to have the opportunity to share our story of last year’s 8-week adventure to the Balkans at the ABR this weekend.

It was a pleasure to see so many join the talk in the Travelers Tales tent. Thank you for the insightful questions and to those of you who came to chat to us afterwards or whilst we’re walking around.

It means the world to us to hear we’ve inspired you and encouraged some to have an adventure of your own. 🏍️🌄

With a little bit of planning, a savings plan and creative thinking, anything is possible. It doesn’t have to be 8 weeks, and you don’t have to cross continents to have an adventure. Work with what you have available and push yourself just a little bit out of your comfort zone.

If you have the will, you can do it!

We felt really supported by everyone who came along. Do let us know what adventure you’re planning. We’d love to hear about it!

Thank you 🙏
