What Happened to Laura? - A Ride, A Stranger and the Mental Health Crisis

From the archives, first aired on May, 2024, I feel that this was one of our most impactful and important episodes.

In this poignant and unexpected episode of Peace Love Moto, we take a detour from our planned celebration of the Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride to reflect on a chance encounter that left a lasting mark.

While enjoying a quiet afternoon ride to "The Forks" near the Wyoming border, our host crosses paths with a young woman named Laura. Walking alone toward a busy highway and talking to herself, Laura serves as a sudden, heartbreaking reminder of the fragility of the human mind and the invisibility of those suffering from mental illness.
