About this listen
What do you do after 36 years investigating homicides? If you're Brian Rix, you ship a BMW GS to South America and ride from the Antarctic Circle to the Arctic Circle.
The former Victorian Detective Inspector and Police Association President has since travelled over 170,000 kilometers across 68 countries on two wheels - with his wife Shirley on the back for every wild kilometer. From bear country breakdowns to 5000-metre Andes crossings, Brian's journey is equal parts adventure story and accidental therapy session.
As a fierce advocate for PTSD-affected officers and co-founder of Australia's Wall to Wall Ride for Remembrance, Brian knows the weight that homicide work leaves behind. But his story isn't about dwelling in darkness - it's about choosing the horizon, discovering that most people are decent, and proving your second act can be even better than your first.
Thirty-six years solving crimes. Three epic journeys. One hell of a retirement plan.
