Anna Baklund
The first time Anna Baklund sat on the back of a motorcycle, she was hooked. Nowadays, Anna is an avid off-road, dual sport, and adventure motorcyclist (she snow bikes too)!
Passionate about the sport; Anna is a strong advocate for responsible riding. Like many of us, she has seen some disturbing behavior pop up on social media over the years. We get into this and the role social media is playing not only in our lives but our pursuit for adventure.
Are favorite riding areas and landmarks being overrun? Are land managers equipped to handle more visitors to riding areas that social media is popularizing?
Tune in to hear her thoughts.
This is a great episode for those listeners looking to get into the sport of motorcycling. Anna does an amazing job of detailing how she got started, how to be a more responsible rider, and where social media fits in with all of this.
