This blog is focussed on the trip of a lifetime my girlfriend and I are embarking upon. I also review gear and preparation and report on previous travels on motorcycles.
When ChrisandChloe (who had never ridden a motorbike between them!) decided to take their bike tests and challenge themselves to riding from BUENOS AIRES to VANCOUVER. This blog will try to tell you how, what, where and when as we go from novices to nomads! C&C

Why spend years planning what you can do tomorrow. Erika Rowe and Yaniv Singer took off on their big, let’s risk our lives before having kids blow-out trip. Erika JUST learned how to ride, neither of them have any mechanical experience, and they have 10 months to make it to the end of the world. California, USA to Ushuaia, Argentina, 2010/11.
Without a plan we made a trip in 4 countries, not knowing how to ride in gravel, moutains or rivers.... It was a fantastic adventure !
