Once upon a time, dirt roads were the only roads. In Wyoming there are more dirt roads than almost anywhere else, so Ari and Zack decided to step back in time. They found two vintage dual-sports, a 1975 Honda XL350 and a 1969 Yamaha DT-1, and tried to ride all the way from the eastern border Nebraska to the western border with Utah, without their tires touching pavement. The boys faced snow, wind, and mud for days, and at the end they came home with another epic Common Tread XP adventure.

If a Kawasaki Ninja 400, Royal Enfield Meteor 350, Honda CRF300L, BMW G 310 GS, and electric Sondors Metacycle roll into an arena, which one will be victorious as the best beginner motorcycle of 2023? Whether you’re a new rider or just someone looking for a lightweight, sub-$6,000 bike, this episode of CTXP goes beyond the manufacturers’ spec sheets to reveal what really makes a motorcycle great.

The time has finally come for CTXP to take on the task of camping comfortably on a motorcycle. But which way is best? Tow a trailer behind a sport bike, or build a place to sleep on the back of a touring rig? Zack and Ari put together their best options for $2500 and hit Route 66 headed for the Grand Canyon.

Umling La is the highest motorable pass in the world, tucked into the Himalayas in northern India. Team CTXP sets out from a few hundred feet above sea level in Delhi in the hopes that they can overcome rainstorms, washed-out roads, and oxygen deprivation to make it to more than 19,000 feet. Will Zack and Spurg conquer the highest road in the world?
