Motorcycle Travellers Tales content
A website documenting my view of the world from the handlebars of a motorcycle. Quality pictures of far away destinations we've visited, funny but realistic stories in blog format including videos of the journey. A breathtaking panorama of pictures to view. There is a growing number of how to's for applying and picking up a visa while on the road, and many useful links for riders attempting to cross the world, whether it be a few countries at a time or many. Come and ride with us!
Hans-Ueli started his journey with his Africa Twin through the Americas 2008.
He realized the best way is to stay open: Make a break.
Since then, he has traveled about half the year and then enjoy for a few months Switzerland.
The way is the goal.
The bikers are a big family. It is always easy to get in contact with local bikers.
Jeff Renwick and Sally Simpson journey around the world by motorcycle. Australia to the U.K. the wrong way round, back to front and upside down!
We quit our jobs, sold almost everything we own and embarked on a tour of the world with our 2 trusty DR650's and we'll keep going 'until the money runs out'
What happens when you put and Aussie and a South African together on 2 F800GS motorcycles having never ridden a bike in their lives before and send them on a 20000km trip from John'O Groats, Scotland to Thailand. Join us for the trial and tribulations, laughs and tears and just generally a good time.
Una Costa Productions has been fueled by a passion for motorcycle adventure travel, the Pacific Ocean and all things Latin America. On the site you will find a wide array of travel stories and photography inspired by the moto trip south. In 2013 I started south after leaving my University professorship in the United States and began this literary project with hopes of connecting the american continent through bilingual education, literature and literacy. The site is designed to be a collaborative of artists, writers and photographers across North and South America, a community where the political boundaries that separate us are non existent. With a bit more exploring of the site, the reader will find lessons and tips on learning Spanish as well. Beyond these elements of the project, Una Costa Productions seeks to inspire travel via short stories, poetry and photography from the back seat of a KLR 650.
Steve Cresswells Round the world motorcycle trip.
We're Tom & Lucy - riding two up from Mexico to Brazil through 15 countries on a 1970 BSA A65 Thunderbolt. We'll tackle many border crossings, and the highs and lows of doing such an adventure on a classic bike that's nearly 50 years old.
A few years ago Trevor Marc Hughes travelled solo on his motorcycle along a remote northern British Columbia highway, meeting people, seeing places...
Travelling overland 2 up on a Suzuki VStrom 650 from Australia to Italy. The bike leaves Australia by air and the adventure starts in South East Asia and continues with the cherry blossom season in Japan. Then through Russia, Mongolia, pick up the old Silk Road in Central Asia, across the Caspian Sea by ferry to Azerbaijan, Georgia, Turkey and into Europe through Greece. 19 countries in all. Then a year in Italy.
On my way to Japan and back, on my old R100 GS beemer.
Doing Aikido whenever it´s possible.
I don´t write about coordinates and sightseeing, but what moves me: the friends I meet on the road, how I feel about what I see and do.
