Aust to berlin
 

Hello every one.
Last year in Nov I completed a 14 mth ride from Muscat, Oman through east africa to Asia.One week after arriving home in Bali I suffered a stroke which has left me without use of my left arm or hand.Prior to this, i was already thinking and arranging my next ride which would have been on a vintageBMW'54 R50/3 in 2 from the eastcoast of Australia through West Africa back the factory in berlin.I did plan this for 2010 but Due to what has happened I have postponed this for another year and am now planning to begin in Feb of 2011iIam now also contacting a cpl of companies I know cha to ask for assistence to do this for two charities in particular(Riders for health) and theAustralian stroke foundation) and wanted to ask any one here if they would care to join me for this epic rideand to assist others who maybe in thesame boat?Aslo any assistence with planning would be greatly apprieciated
Cheers

Hello Lars its good to hear from you again mate. Yes it's all getting better but too slow for me I think? This plan is still on the drawing board and I am advancing slowly. Am stillwaiting for a reply back from the charities as well. I have mt R1200GS for sale as well now to help finance this trip as well. So if you know any one who wants a R1200GS travel bike that has done a trip and has all the traveling extras already fitted please let me know.
Ok mate will keep you informed how I am going with it all. take care
