Damian Rowley’s Midlife Awakening on a Solo Motorbike

Damian ‘Demon’ Rowley’s midlife awakening, as he calls it, came as he approached 50, felt burnt out and realised he had more life behind him than lay ahead.

In a radical move, he quit his job as a professional motorcyclist/limo rider, overpacked a bag and ran away from the noise of everyday life to explore the world on a KTM690 motorbike, in search of inner peace and contentment.

Damian shares stories from his solo travels, what he learned about himself, and reveals plans for his next adventure across The Stans and China in collaboration with Mental Health Motorbike which offers free support to bikers struggling with mental health.
