This episode kicks off Season 12: An abbreviated season. After eight years of consistent publishing, the Dudes are scaling back for the rest of 2024 in order to fine tune the show, focus energy elsewhere, and just catch up on life. This season will consist of five episodes, one for each month through December. Regular, weekly episodes will resume in February 2025 with Season 13.
The reflection of their trip to India will span over two episodes. In this episode (pt.1), Sean and Kyle reflect on their recent trip to India, describing both the challenges and highlights of their adventure. They mention the initial stress of the journey, the support they received from sponsors and donors, and the excitement and admiration from friends and family.
The episode details their activities, including meeting researchers at the All India Institute for Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and connecting with the FA patient community of India. They recount the logistical difficulties they faced, such as getting their trikes through Customs and navigating airport security with their group, including the language barriers and misunderstandings.
Upon arriving in Leh, they acclimated to the high altitude, explored local culture, and prepared their Catrikes for the upcoming trek. The Dudes share humorous and stressful moments, such as the infamous white scarfs, dealing with intense sun exposure, and adapting to local cuisine.
Finally, they describe the start of their bike ride, marked by a traditional dance and music presentation by local performers, emphasizing the support and encouragement they received throughout their journey.
Be sure to catch episode 257 for the rest of the story.
