Jeff Pierce is a close friend who&#39;s closely responsible for helping me find adventure riding. Jeff purchased a KTM 990 new and rode it solo from Ohio to Alaska. He tells us about his return to motorcycles after his Navy discharge, his trip to Alaska, scrambling a Harley Sportster, and more. This episode was originally recorded in February 2023.
