no support, no sponsors, no backup vehicle, just me and my motorcycle… and I love it that way!!!
Till now it was much more fun than I ever thought I could have in my life! Time flies so fast, I have been on the road for over 2 months now…
here are some facts:
Distance: ~ 16500 kilometer Fuel: ~ 750 liter (84-98 octane) Oil: ~ 7 liter Beer: ~ 30-40 liter ;-) Tires: 3 rear, 1 front Light falls: 3 Accidents: 0 Countries visited: 4 Border crossings: 4 Maximum height: ~ 4800 meter above sea level Temperature: -1°C up to 44°C Weather conditions: bright sunshine, cold and rainy, tropical rain, storm and hail, snowfall, … Police traffic controls: ~ 30 Police traffic fines: ~ 3 Friends made: countless
Troubles: one flat tire, left back mirror broken, various screws lost, defective bracket/flap on baggage system, motorcycle jacket front zip defect, navigation-system starts to give troubles, and I’m afraid my laptop won't last any longer...
But so far everything has worked out much better than I ever would have dreamed of…
