Good luck with your ride. The Tenere is more than capable, I took mine over 8000 miles in 19 days back in 2008 (again for charity).

Anyone (and you will get someone) saying it's easy has never tried such a venture, the worst thing is the constant riding, not being able to take in the sights, sounds, smells etc.

Would I do it again ? No. Missing much of where I rode is a constant reminder to me to take stuff in now. But I'm glad I did it.

Again, good luck with your ride, turning a loss into a positive isn't easy.
