Hi - I spent a year riding RTW in 2010 and have captured this in a book - the book was harder than the ride but was released a couple of months ago. Short detail below or take a look on Amazon or YouTube videos - The Real Way Round - i'm happy to answer any questions on the trip, bike, any queries....hope to post a few pics soon when i work it out and see the level of interest - cheers

The Real Way Round: 1 year, 1 motorcycle, 1 man, 6 continents, 35 countries, 42,000 miles, 9 oil changes, 3 sets of tyres, and loads more ...



This is a pictorial diary of a once-in-a-lifetime motorbike trip across 35 countries, and a practical guide to motorcycling round the world what to do first, what to plan for, and how to cope with the unexpected. Features stunning photography, details of bike modifications, route maps, points of interest, and practical guidance on freighting your bike. This book captures one man's real of experience motorcycling around the globe no back up teams, no spare bikes, no film crews. 42,000 miles through 35 countries, seeing amazing things, meeting fascinating people, experiencing different cultures and coping with extremely challenging conditions. This book is not only proof anyone can do it, but also a guide as to how to do it. It is not a technical guide, but rather a broad-brush approach covering some of the key tasks needed to plan and complete a similar trip yourself. With dozens of inspirational photos of stunning scenery and intense experiences, plus an informal, straightforward commentary, this is an eye-opening and practical account of biking around the world.

It's getting very good reviews. I might put it on my birthday list.

Hi all
Thanks for the welcome, this seems to be a busy forum, good stuff. I need to have a good browse round the different topic areas over the next few days and get some photos uploaded if possible!

Thanks for getting the book Peds and anyone else planning to, hope you enjoy, it was a ****** to pull all the info together but worth it!

I also plan to get to the Horizons meeting at Donnington next year, have seen that on this forum.

Does anyone know what Yamaha or Tenere stands there will be at the bike show NEC?
Cheers J

Hi J,

Great to see the book in print,

NEC you will find Nick Sanders with his Tenere plus the official Yamaha Stand but not heard of anything else as yet.

May see you down there if our paths cross

Cheers Ray
