From the UK to Australia and back - sort of. Plan? What plan?

This Is A Day To Day Account Of My Motorbike Journey Beginning In September 2007.
A Total Of 25,168 Kilometers Overland Through 18 Countries, from Malaysia to Ireland In 99 Days.

Australia's only CanAm Spyder rentals located on the beautiful Gold Coast, Queensland, also do tours and thrill rides.

Five young New Zealand lads take on the biggest adventure of their lives as they ride 25,000 kms across 18 countries from Russia to London for charity

While up mountains at 5000m, it is unwise to make massive, life-changing plans. The lack of oxygen may well be affecting you. So if you decide suddenly to go on a round-the-world adventure on a 21yr old motorbike for a year or more, think Very Carefully. Or just do it.

This is my blog about my journey from UK to Sydney, it's also a fundraiser for Unicef

My day by day blog, plus a number of pages regarding the bike, the trip preparation, visa etc, vaccinations

"Between May 2007 and March 2008, a charity journey by motorcycle of 28,111 miles was ridden. It began from the UK, heading for Australia, overland on a BMW F650GS Dakar motorcycle. The route was ... through Eastern Europe, Russia, Kazakhstan, China and India before heading to Malaysia and to the penultimate country, Singapore before reaching Australia. The trip was in aid of the charity 'Make-a-Wish Foundation', a very worthwhile cause, for whom money and awareness is being raised and your support is kindly requested.

"A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself". ~Robert M. Pirsig This site is designed to explore the zen behind motorcycle travel. The site looks at what motorcyclists feel as they travel and what drives them. Its a mix of philosophy and travel tales.
