DURIANRIDER q+a sesh...

I don't want to detract from the personal "mentor" section, and I'm taking some advice through that personally, but I think it'd be helpful (providing DR is ok with it) to gain knowledge and insight into DR's day to day life and any other questions for him.

firstly DR, could you outline or describe your intitial steps taken into you current way of life (ie. no fixed address, foraging meals, assisting in the community). how did you go from drug abuser (presumably living a "normal" life) to your current nomadic, RV hero status. was it a gradual process linked with increased nutritional awareness, or had you planned to do it a long time ago?

DNF- thats funny! good you can laugh! Thank you for the great reply bro. I am proud of you because you did a tough race honestly! Those other pill-poppers will pay for it the next day or somewhere down the road. I agree that 811rv helps with endurance(and everything else!) I will check out the race link- thank you! You are encouraging! thanks for all your vids on youtube.

thanks, when i finish a race or a hill climb or riding accross australia, i know its me doing it rather than some adrenal response from abusing my body with stimulants etc.

i love waking up the next day feeling healthy and strong instead of feeling like suicide and needing more stimulants to get out of bed...

I just noticed this convo was from 2009. Pretty sure DR is rich now.

How do you know that he is rich? I don't see him selling any products on his website? He may be an affiliate marketer for any products (ebooks/books/vibrancemag/t-shirts) on this website, but that probably doesn't make him a millionaire? I know that he is writing a book now which will bring him some money. What is your definition of rich? I can tell by his videos that he leads a rich life in the sense of fulfillment, happiness, and adventure. In all good fun, just some questions. Thanks for digging this up from 2009, it was a great read.

I just meant I doubt he's having to ride for two days because he doesn't have enough money to eat ;)

When one is practicing their life passion wealth usually follows.

Rich in both time and money for sure. Though for some people its too much freedom and not enough money still. The running shoes I have now will last me at least another 3 years. I will replace em when the air bags show thru the sole.

ALL the people that used to call me a bum a few years ago, now they say its not fair how much $ I make lol!

Some people haters regardless.
