[CarlosSalvador67]

I dream going a world trip and one day i'll MAKE IT ... ;)

[macgyvere]

@CarlosSalvador67 dont dream just do it..like i will after school :P

[Mizu4ok]

I might consider the trip around the europe on my gsxr600 but around the world is actually a big commitment

[DanLee82]

You'll love it! I've been twice; once on my GSXR400 & once on a CBR600 & can't wait to do it again. Biking holidays can be the best holidays you'll ever have.

I've been through Paris, Biarritz, Andorra, Barcelona, Costa Brava, over the Miliau Bridge,Ardeche..............It­aly and back next time! Route Napoleon, Monaco, Monte Carlo, Iitaly, Pisa, Milan, ride the mountain passes between Italy & Switzland, Mont Blanc, Gernmany, Nuremburg Ring - and then head home!

I just don't understand it... What does the man have against trail Bikes :) I mean... did he really get to see the landscape while the bumps, rocks and holes were slamming his spinal cord? Anyone that hasn't rode bikes of this type will really get the wrong idea about their tolerance to the conditions of the road, which is very small (I own one so I know). Either this is masochism or seeking the contrast of pleasure after pain, or something else but it's certainly admirable.

[tiaaao]

its his 7th jouney around the world.. I think he wanted something more "adventurous" ..hehe

[euheide]

thanks for the info. I didn't know that. It makes much more sense that way :). What will he think of next? lol

[kozadongre]

a snow mobile on all the motoGP race tracks of the world lol!!

[euheide]

lol. I hope he chooses something with a better landscape for the sake of the viewers ;)

[kozadongre]

i don't think he knew the terrain would be so bad when he started.

[euheide]

I have a theory :). What if this was a message to all sportbike owners that over-protect their bikes? When I saw this video, I realized I was being too sissy or over-protective with my bike and now I'm a bit more relaxed with it. I enjoy it much more and it's fine as usual :)

[kozadongre]

i think he's trying to show people that u don't need a 4x4 to go around the world, that a bike (a sports bike in fact)is capable of the task as well.

[euheide]

He certainly shows that, although I don't think he convinced anyone to actually do it ;)

[injabulo82]

"and then the tricky bit across the Nubian desert on my R1" :D gross understatement!!

[yukikaze8721]

this is surely one of my dream. riding my bike around the world. the road..the scenery..the wind..you just gotta feel it. i totally agree what nick said. 80.000 km it doesn't matter as long as you love to ride.

*one thing though, it must be damn hard to ride through the sand at the nubian desert with a sport bike*

fantastic movie nick!

i was hoping to see if there's any documentary film on his trip though. :)

[passage53]

Nice one Nick, I will miss your exploits.

[blackhawkcommando]

nice......

[aufifob]

living the dream nick! no regrets-youre a long time dead!! wish i had the balls.

[BARRON120]

great video, i want to be in ur place there....

A week ago i took my 600RR for a 250mile drive and my butt was killing me. Lots of respect though ;)

Enjoy life man!

[MobiusPT]

It's fantastic!

[confusedsay]

[7Underwood7]
