Walkabout
Open Walkabout
Brown City to Port Wentworth.
The 2020 on-foot route, four New Era Adventures videos, and the field lessons that came with the miles.
New Era Adventures
Adventure Archive.
Routes, miles, lessons, and field records from the road side of the studio: walkabout fragments, Europe travel moments, motorcycle camping, backpacking notes, gear tests, and video records from days outside the normal script.
Adventure archive
Movement leaves useful evidence.
The adventure lane gives the studio a place for road records that are honest, practical, and alive: what the miles taught, what the kit taught, what the route changed, and what the next trip should carry forward.
Some pieces are video fragments. Some are lists. Some are long notes about walking, camping, riding, repairing, packing, and noticing the parts of a day that do not fit cleanly anywhere else.

Walkabout archive
Brown City, Michigan, to Port Wentworth, Georgia.
The 2020 walkabout is part route record, part field memory. It belongs here because it changed the way New Era thinks about endurance, attention, simplicity, and keeping a record close to the actual day.
Moto Adventures
Motorcycle camping, Goldwing miles, and ride gear.
The moto lane is its own thing: motorcycle camping, cross-country pieces, route fragments, helmets, audio, and the practical decisions that only matter once the bike is loaded and moving.
Europe archive
Iceland, Amsterdam, Scotland, London, the Netherlands, and Germany.
New Era Adventures also carries an overseas thread: Iceland's Laugavegur Trail, Amsterdam streets, Netherlands notes, and the 2019 Scotland-London-Germany route. It gives the travel side of the studio a wider field for route memory, country notes, and lessons from moving through unfamiliar places.

Gear notes What earns a place in the kit.Archive mentions, item lessons, brand notes, repair stories, and packing logic.
Walkabout A long walk changes distance.Brown City to Port Wentworth, preserved as route memory and field record.
Gear notes
Gear mentions are based on archive records, visible use, field interest, or actual use unless marked otherwise. They are not paid placements unless stated plainly.
Lists are strongest when they stay earned.
The best adventure writing here should keep the same rule as the studio work: make it useful, keep it honest, leave room for story, and let the record grow only where there is something worth carrying.
