I woke up early but was still feeling a bit "tired" from all the New Years Eve dancing so we had a sleep in and a leisurely pack up. We then rode to Bli Bli and hit up the cable park to start 2014 off...

The little tomato (Alicia) kept up much better today after my "Ketchup" story and has steadily got more comfortable and confident on her bike. We had a short ride ahead of us so we decided to detour t...

Tip of the day, knobby tires aren't predictable on a paved road. I've been working on my Tokyo Drift skills coming out of tight corners on the bitumen (pavement) but today it went a little too far and...

Today was a long hot ride and the bush fires up wind of us made it feel like we were being slow cooked in a smoker. I'm guessing I smelled similar to smoked salmon because Alicia insisted I shower bef...

We camped last night in a tropical caravan park with plenty of shade provided by the mango trees overhanging our spot. What we didn't realise is that the tree would fill up with flying foxes (Giant Ba...

Another leg of the journey and a new partner in crime. Alicia Evans, 5'9" Brown hair and Blue-Grey eyes and mean as a rattlesnake when she drinks. (I'm sure that will earn me a slap when she reads thi...

This summer went with friends on a short trip for 5 days to the shores of the Black Sea. were in many picturesque places, helped people, visited the motor festival. Avoided accidents several times ? f...

Hello everyone! we continue our journey!...

I woke up this morning earlier than Jason as usual and noticed a large pile of beer cans surrounding his tent. Some sort of strange wind and beer magnetism effect had all the previous nights beers blo...

There are plenty of animals to kill you in Australia such as Salt Water Crocodiles, Great Whites, Bull Sharks, Brown Snakes, King Brown Snakes, Red Bellied Black Snakes, Red Backs, Box Jelly Fish, Cas...

Jason's Comments: Upon unzipping my swag to the emerging daylight I was reminded that all Longwell's (with the exception of Eisele-Longwell) wake up on most occasions before I. I thought I was dreamin...

After yesterday's post Jason and I took full advantage of the bar until we worked up enough courage to walk through the woods in the dark to the natural hot spring pools. The locals had told us that y...

They say "The best things in life are free" but apparently friendship doesn't fall into that category as it cost me $10,540 to get my friend Jason to visit me in Australia. $9,000 for the bike, $1,500...

370 km from Moscow...

I woke up to a loud buzzing sound and saw a cloud of Mosquitos gathered on the mesh of my swag and eying me like the delicious meal I would surely be. I was just in my undies and had to make a mad das...

I crossed into the Northern Territory this morning and the speed limit immediately jumps up to 130 kph which seemed fast at first but you get used to it pretty quick. Also signs started popping up all...

Another long day on the road trying to catch up for my past mistakes led me deeper into less habited portions of NE Western Australia. Now I know Texas is big but Western Australia is massive! I've ch...

I slept for a solid 10 hours and woke up with the sun all the way for the first time on my trip. I had woken up once during the night to cover my gear when it started raining only to realise in the mo...
