I came across this site and an article about a guy who drove his Tenere 50,000 miles. The bike engine was taken apart and it was as good as new! Interesting article. I am sure most of you have probably read it already. I am usually a year or so behind everyone else. I just discovered the new iPhone 4!

Pete, what is a iPhone4? Does it have a rotary dial like my present cell phone? I don't trust those new fangled ones with push buttons. ;D

My phone is so old it still needs money inserted in the front of it...

More like 2+ years on this one, but who's counting.

He has a video about the journey. It's an interesting watch.

He is also still riding the same bike. Still doing his tours around different countries. Same bike not same model. Old Git Ray bumped into him on his American Adventure. That 75,000Km trip was just breaking it in.

Other tidbit is that site was created by our very own DCStrom. who is did the Americas and is now over in Europe.

Trevor is now in Croatia and in this Moldavan interview he mentioned having now covered more than 30 countries. He did most of the western hemisphere countries, Europe, and is heading east. The bike has over 80,000 miles now, some of which have been VERY hard miles.

I'm going to see Nick doing one of his talks at my local Yamaha dealer next Friday. Should be interesting. ::017::

 

[dcstrom]

yeah MrPete, I'm about 2 years behind on updating the website too! Thought I'd have plenty of time to do it, and other web stuff, on the road, but turns out I'd rather be riding! *see the map in Checkswrecks post above

Trevor, nice to see you are getting the rock star treatment complete with press coverage and your own entourage.

Hope all is well.
