Worlds Most Travelled Vehicle, a Harley-Davidson Motorcycle

By Peter & Kay Forwood

Coming from Our Countries List

The following has been extracted from the Travelers' Century Club's web page. The numbers to the left of each "country" are the 223 places our motorcycle has visited as at 16th February 2008 according to this list.

"Here is the Travelers' Century Club's official list of countries, a total of 317 as of June 2007. Although some are not actually countries in their own right, they have been included because they are removed from parent, either geographically, politically or ethnologically (see the Country Status page for detailed criteria). After consideration as to how long one must have stayed in a country or island group to qualify, it was decided that even the shortest visit would suffice — even if only a port-of-call, or a plane fuel stop. This greatly widens the field and will give the traveler a better chance to qualify for one of the most unusual clubs in the world. Anyone who has visited 100 or more of the places listed below is eligible to join."
