Ethan Plath Takes To The Open Road

Although Welcome To Plathville stars, Olivia and Ethan Plath’s story has mainly been focused on their divorce, both are learning a great deal about themselves. However, Ethan has been branching out. Correspondingly, he readied his motorcycle for a long trip. On July 11, 2024, he said on Instagram, “Here’s a photo dump of my latest project. A rack that I built for my Harley Nightster that will hold all my luggage, spare gasoline, and my tent and sleeping bags on my cross country trip from Maine to California.”

Wish me luck!!” Then, Lydia Plath wished him well saying, “Blessings and be safe! We love you ❤️can’t wait to hear all the adventure stories 😊.” But while he has been making good time on his trip, he ran into an issue that caused him to stop.

Unfortunately, the new puncture is breaking in the tire quicker than hoped. Although it is a hold-up that Ethan most likely didn’t want, he probably knew there would be a few hangups on such a long road trip.
