Having completed my trip thru Asia, Africa and Europe, I intend to continue my journey to North America, Central America, South America and Australia.
I dedicated my trip to worldwide peace, though maybe it's just a big dream that will never come true but at least there are a lot of people I met are happy to live in peace and harmony.
Indeed
“Ride For Peace” is not always had a peace experience. Sometime plans didn’t go the way we want… Being robbed while pass Afghanistan and lost my motorbike when it parked infront of the hotel near police station in Amsterdam, become apart of the journey…
It’s a hard time but I survived… I got a new friend name "Silver Line", it’s a Silver R1150GS Adventure 2002, similar with my stolen bike. I back to the road and ride from Western tip of Europe thru’
TRANS SIBERIA wilderness till Vanino Harbour in Eastern tip of Russia. Jump to Japan by ferry from Sakhalin Island, Russia and then across to Busan, Korea from Shimonosheki Harbour.
Finally, I arrived in Vancouver, Canada, the 77th country last week. My motorbike ‘Silver Line’ will arrive here next week. (Oct 18th, 2012). I know, it’s getting too cold to ride, specially for me as a tropical man but the show must go on. From Vancouver, I will riding east to New York to visit my friends and riding west across the legend ‘Route 66’ to LA.
Then continue my venturing trip to Mexico, Belize, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, by sailing boat from Puerto Lindo to Cartagena, Colombia, Equador, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, French Guiana, Brazil, Uruguay, Argentina, Bolivia, Peru, Chile, cross to Australia and back home to Indonesia in 2015.
Any information or recomendation about nice route, campsite, budget lodging along my journey are welcome…. Any rider want to join, meet or share the experiences are welcome… All information are value and I really appreciated it…
Keep your wheels rollin' and see you somewhere in this planet...
The Road May End, but Not the Spirit of Adventure and Peace…
