On the show we catch up with Scott Lee of Colorado Motorcycle Adventures. From a 1972 Honda Mini Trail 50 to a fleet of Adventure bikes, Scott eats, drinks and sleeps motorcycles. And from that lifelong love of all things with two wheels and an engine came Colorado Motorcycle Adventures ("CMA"), the premier adventure rental and tour company in the Mountain West. Scott started CMA with the idea of offering superior motorcycles, unparalleled customer service and most importantly, the opportunity for adventure to those who want to see and experience the United States in a way that only motorcycles can provide.
We talk with Scott about how he took the leap from full-time advertising exec to CEO of Colorado Motorcycle Adventures; how Mt. Vernon, Illinois may be the ADV and music capital of the world; and how Scott's favorite one-day advanced trail ride, the "717 Stinger" got its name. Stick around, I think you'll enjoy this episode.

Nestled in the Lisbon Valley of Southeast Utah, the 3 Step Hideaway is a dual-sport and ADV rider's dream. Located directly on the TransAmerica Trail (TAT) and just 14 miles from the Utah Backcountry Discovery Route (BDR), the off-the-grid, rustic frontier lodge is a phenomenal stopover or basecamp for every adventure rider. Playing host to several 3-day annual rally's and offering hundreds of miles of trails through BLM land right from the front door, owners Scott and Julie Stevenson will make you feel like family. They've owned the 3 Step Hideaway since 2013 and in this episode, Scott tells us how he went from masonry contractor to owner of one of the most unique off-road B&B's in the country.
