Charley! A family friend gave me the DVD's of the LWR series when I was 13, and I became obsessed with bikes (nobody in my family or anyone I knew had one). I used to plan all these trips around NZ for when I would finally get a bike. Fast forward a few years and a couple tens of thousands of km's, I've travelled NZ solo on my twin F650GS and now I'm in Melbourne and exploring Aus on a Tiger 800XC. Colouring in the roads on my world atlas as I go, always aiming for new roads so I can fill the map. I loved the series, also By Any Means and Dakar I've watched a few times! Will there be a portion of your trip for civilians to join in Melbourne? It would be incredible to meet you and come full circle, I'll wear my Long Way Up merch lol. I have achieved my dream trips on my dream bike, I owe it to you man. Thanks, and hope to see you in Naarm!
Wow, that is such a lovely message to read. I feel very humbled by your enthusiasm and getting out there and riding your motorcycle. Would love to hook up if you’re still in Australia. We get in Oz around the 16th November in Melbourne. Eventually head over to Sydney. Have a look on my website for the dates. Anyway, if you’re around still come and say hello.
its always good to hear of internationals, veiw of Tassy,,,and welcome to Eden,stay uprite
Ride with @CharlieBoorman would be an exciting experience...
This would be so much fun. Some amazing roads. Maybe one day.
Another epic ride!
Wish I could spare the time to ride along.
Spooky... I was just thinking you should do Long Way Around with Ewan. 22,000 miles around Australia's coast. Incredible
Bravo my friend
I wish you all happiness
Take care
