July 15, 2019 On June 7th, the apparel went live on our site. Ash and our developer Karl stayed up till the wee hours of the morning putting the finishing touches on the product pages. We woke up later that day to see that our first apparel order came in at 1:21 am, about 20 […]
May 27, 2019 Ash and I are currently camped-out on the western shore of the Alvord Desert in Southeastern Oregon. We’re returning from Overland Expo in Flagstaff, where we displayed the new Mosko riding apparel for the first time. We stopped here on the way home to catch up on work, emails, and the blog, and […]
April 23, 2019 Between the US, Canada, Europe, and Australia, we attend a lot of motorcycle events. So many that I sometimes lose track of what’s next. We don’t have dealers to spread the word, so we load up the Mosko trailer, drive around the country, and do it ourselves. Like a small band with […]
March 19, 2019 It’s great to be back in the office! There’s a lot to catch up on. We’ve been on the road nearly non-stop since November, with just a few quick breaks between trips. Seven trips on four continents since last November. Winter flew by. Now the rally/show season is starting up again, with […]
March 4, 2019 Ash and I just returned from a month-long motorbike trip in Ethiopia. There’s a full ride report here: ETHIOPIA RIDE REPORT. We bought a couple 200cc dualsports in Addis Ababa, and rode 2,300 miles from the southern border with Kenya to the northern border with Eritrea. It was an epic trip, and technically it’s […]
January 14, 2019 On behalf of the entire Mosko team: Happy New Year! This pic is from our Mosko holiday party at Sushi Okalani in Hood River a few weeks ago. We were joined by Scott & Lauren’s new baby girl Rosland. Ecuador Gear Testing Trip Ash and I spent the holidays in Ecuador with […]
December 8, 2018 Backpacks are the current hot topic around the Mosko shop. Should we, shouldn’t we. And if so, how? On longer multi-day ADV trips, I’ve been using the Nomad tank bag instead of a backpack. But I still use a hydration pack for trail riding, the same pack I use on my mountain […]

October 4, 2018 At the moment, I have Mosko headquarters all to myself. Andrew is in Vietnam visiting our sewing factory. Lee is in Europe working with our new fulfillment center and attending the INTERMOT show. Ashley and Sarah are on a motorcycle trip near Mt. Adams. Scott is at home with his wife Lauren […]
August 22, 2018 For the last four weeks, since we returned from the BMW Rally in Iowa, Ash and I have been here at home in the Gorge. This is the longest uninterrupted stretch of summer we’ve had at home in several years, and it has been awesome. It ends this afternoon, when we leave […]
July 27, 2018 Ash and I just returned from the national BMW MOA event in Iowa. At 1,700 miles, this was the farthest we’ve ever driven for a show. Normally we fly to anything over about 1,200 miles. Flying is nearly as much of a hassle as driving though, because we can’t bring display bikes, […]
