Austin Vince's Mondo Sahara is an evangelical call to arms for anyone who wants undiluted, 24-carat adventure motorcycling. His seven-man Anglo-American team heads south to the sun, riding 5,000 miles in a month from London to the heart of the Sahara, almost entirely off-road. It is dusty, chaotic, and gloriously low-tech.

Why This Film Matters: Adventure motorcycling in its purest form is about self-reliance and the willingness to get lost, break down, and figure it out. Mondo Sahara is a joyful rejection of the packaged, GPS-guided version of travel, an argument that the best journeys are the ones you are not entirely sure you will finish.
