As ever, the answer to one question leads to many more questions.
Anyway, fair play to this guy!!

Well, we ARE motorcyclists and until we invent a floating or flying moto, it's impossible to meet those definitions of circumnavigation. It's still accurate to claim you gone around the world if you have (longest land route possible etc.)
