Smile RTW (Paris – Vietnam – Australia – Ushuaia – NY) – Departure March 2023

Greetings;

Summary:
I’m 26 (English&French) and I am planing to circumvent the globe for 14-18months leaving in March 2023, I am looking for one or more travel partners for some part of the journey (or the full thing!)

Plan: The plan is to ride what you can see in the photo attached
(Fly from Nepal to Vietnam to avoid Burma (Currently dangerous)), (Fly from Melbourne to Ushuaia), (Fly from Colombia to Panama), (Fly from Newyork to London), other movements across water would be done by boat. (See quick drawing on photo attached)

More Details:
Situation: I have been riding for 6 years now, I have ridden in multiple countries in Europe, South Africa and Thailand, as a preparation I travelled across western Europe for 2 months last year and I am doing NordKapp from London in June 2022.

I currently have an old F800GS but I was thinking of doing the RTW on a CRF250Rally as a T7 is currently off budget. I have been preparing the mapping and logistics for a while now but I have mostly been waiting to get the money together (In total I counted 45keuros for everything the bike included), I’m happy to share how I found this number with more details! (See costs on photo attached)

I expect the trip to last between 14 and 18 months and I am leaving in march 2023 because I was looking for dry seasons along the way: (See weather Dashboard attached)

I haven’t mapped everything with precision as I expect country situations to change with time, I mainly focus on finding things I want to do and see (Diving in Turkey/Australia, Visiting temples in Asia…). General mapping also allows me to estimate things like flight costs, km, hostel costs...

I am looking for someone or a group of people to do some part of it or even the full thing, we would of course meet and ride together beforehand to make sure we get on ;p, please send me a message on (frenchy360rtw@gmail.com) or leave a message on here!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
