Highlights thus far:
- Rebuilt a Honda XL500s - fully customised for long distance .. and then lost it.
- Took a KLR 650 from Korea to Belgium, the hard way ... and broke it - many times.

Trevor Marc Hughes does his best to get to know his home province by motorcycle. Whether his adventures be three-day sorties along the forest service roads of Vancouver Island, or multi-week adventures into remote northern British Columbia, Trevor writes about his experiences in exciting detail. With links to his articles for a variety of Canadian print and online magazines about his explorations of B.C. on his Kawasaki KLR650, Trevor's website is full of travel tales that will provide inspiration and information about the terrain to be expected and ideas for places of interest to check out along the way.

Hi all!
Here's the link to my South American road-trip's blog, and hereunder the pitch!
Hope you'll enjoy and have some recommendations for me :)
25.000 kms through 8 countries of South America in 180 days of moto ride: from Buenos Aires - Argentina to Cartagena - Colombia ascending the Cordillera of the Andes, then descending along the Pacific coast to Ushuaia and back to BsAs... A little getaway to discover the Cordillera of the Andes!
Suerte ;)
After completing my trip from Zurich to Singapore via Siberia in 2012 I knew it would not be my last. I have spent almost 3 years saving like crazy to do another cross continental adventure. This time I am riding through South and Central America. I’ll again spend half the time with other people (6 weeks with Motolombia on the Amazon Challenge, and 2 months with my Fiancé Joern Ruders) and the rest of the trip solo. I like to mix it up that way!
I am currently in Orlando Florida and the trip kicks off in full on the 10th August 2015.
I hope you enjoy my blog, cheers Lorraine
