In late 2023, after years of talking about it, Steve Robertson embarked on his solo ride from Ontario, Canada to Ushuaia, Argentina. He had never done a big international trip like this before, he didn’t speak any Spanish and knew the language barrier could be a challenge, but with a translation app in hand and his goals firmly set, he felt ready to go. On the eighth day of his trip, he had an accident in Mexico. He went down and was injured—unable to lift one arm—but fortunately, nothing was broken. So now Steve had a dilemma - he had saved up for this trip of a lifetime - should he end his adventure there, fly home, and leave the bike in Mexico, or should he try to keep going?
