When broken bones and an attempt to get themselves out of their remote location didn’t work out, they were left with a decision to make. And to help us better understand when to send out an SOS signal, we spoke with Emily Thompson at GEOS, the people on the other end who answer your call for help and co-ordinate remote rescues around the world.

Tom Medema recently returned from a trip with 15 volunteers who rode Yamaha XTZ 125’s to Nepal. They delivered the much needed motorcycles to park rangers in Chitwan National Park, where the rangers protect Rhinos and Tigers from poachers. The ride was rough and challenging, they ran into problems with the lack of oxygen, snowy conditions, traffic and even an accident which left a rider with a broken hand. We talk about this trip and another one that Tom led to Mongolia earlier this year, and how they’ve made a difference to rangers who work tirelessly to protect park lands in those countries.
