Guest James Baile shares stories from his 1986 adventure, which took him from Nepal to Everest Base Camp, navigating rugged terrain on early model mountain bikes. Despite dealing with challenging conditions, carrying the bikes through steep passes, and facing the harsh weather, James recounts the incredible kindness of strangers and the profound life lessons he gained. He discusses the transformation he experienced, his memories of the awe-inspiring landscapes, and the lasting impact of this adventure on shaping his life and future travels.
