Andy Davidson

Andy has been travelling all his life. But as soon as he was old enough to get a motorcycle licence, he was hooked on two wheel travel. First exploring the UK before quickly venturing further into Europe and beyond.

Some of his early bigger trips included riding a Kawasaki ZX-9R to Albania at 19 years old, riding through Southeast Asia at 20, and motorcycling solo from the UK to Iraq at 23. 

Soon after, he landed a dream job as a feature writer for Motor Cycle News, professionally testing bikes, gear, travelling the world and writing about adventure motorcycle travel. 

But it wasn’t enough, the road was always calling, so after six years, Andy and Alissa decided to pack up their lives in the UK for an indefinite life on the road. And on the 1st January 2018 they left home to ride their motorcycles around the world indefinitely. 

Andy now runs Mad or Nomad as he travels to help fellow overlanders – sharing his lifetime of experience travelling on motorcycles. You can try and find him riding in some random corner of the world – or it might be easier to get in touch via email instead: contact@madornomad.com
