Making their way through southern Europe, north, through France and across the English Channel to England, Wales and across to Ireland. Their original plan has been changed to take them back through Europe, Turkey, Iran, Pakistan and then across the vast country of China arriving in Shanghai some time in late 2012.

Right Way Round ..' ?? Well, I'm not even sure where this trip will end. You see, I'm the original 'Uneasy Rider' .. not especially blessed with much natural motorcycling talent, nor am I a particularly courageous motorcycle rider. Nevertheless I went 'Right Way Round' New Zealand (3 times) - and then Australia.
Now it's up to South-east Asia and a ride beyond, through Indo-China, over the Himalayas, across to Asia Minor and maybe some of Africa .. finishing in Europe.
Right Way Round - all the way home .. to England on a Honda Transalp, or bust?!

All my life I've heard rumors of strange cultures and wondrous sights. I thought I knew the world from these rumors. Then I started reading books of people's travels and I began to realize that the world I've been told about might not be the world as it actually is. So I set off to find out the truth for myself and find the world is a very different place than the media would have had me believe. Along the way I hope to share what I can of my experience to help others understand what I have seen...
