..each to their own.
i understand that all of these riders that take part in one of Nicks rides are vetted. they are given a full run down of what will be expected of them and their abilities are assessed. some wont make it...some wil...but these are all adults and you pay your money and take your chance.
and as one post said here....a bad days riding is better than any good day in the office. i totally agree with that.
Simon and I have often also been called 'mad' as we have been doing the complete opposite to Nicks type of riding whereas he is super-fast our journey is slow and long. what has takenus 8 years in distance others could have 'done' in less than 2.
no, they will not have time to make friends with the locals...but maybe this is not the reason they want/can/are able to, make this trip.
people have a variety of reasons for wanting to ride a bike (sports bike, cruiser, big traily and so on) ...but at least they ARE riding one!
I understand that the route will take them up the Ruta 40 (not the 3) and this time Nick is riding the new Super Tenere.
