    Jeff Stoess is the creator of the Kentucky Adventure Tour (KAT). The KAT is a 900+ mile Dual-Sport backcountry route through eastern Kentucky, including small parts of Virginia, West Virginia, and Tennessee. I sat down with Jeff to talk about why he created the KAT, all the nitty-gritty details of riding the KAT, and a little bit about how he got into riding in the first place.

    After moonlighting as a Moto Blogger for a few years, I wanted to sit down with folks in the motorcycle, outdoor, and adventure community and get to know them as people; talk about riding, their tastes, where they come from. Ultimately I want to host long-format discussions about people's passions; where we can get their expertise and hear their unfiltered opinions. Send comments to MotoADVR@gmail.com
