"My name’s Ben and I really like motorcycles. So much so, that I want to see the world on the back of one. I’ve cooked up this scheme where I’m going to spend 26 days, riding from my home in San Diego all the way to Montreal to see a Formula 1 race. I’ve also shanghaied my friend and fellow F1 aficionado, Adam into this little adventure and on the 11th of May, we’ll be setting off to the Great White North. Our route will take us through Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, the Dakotas, Minnesota, Ontario and Quebec."

While up mountains at 5000m, it is unwise to make massive, life-changing plans. The lack of oxygen may well be affecting you. So if you decide suddenly to go on a round-the-world adventure on a 21yr old motorbike for a year or more, think Very Carefully. Or just do it.
