This brings a whole new dimension to the coldest ride contest.
Good endorsement for the Africa Twin as well.

Wow!!! Much better than the long way up. He's had quite the adventure. A Honda pulled him through.

Thanks Andrew for the link.

1 and a half months old and crushed into a cube, a good advert for Ural.

Wow, what a trip! That guy is amazing! I really hope someone can make this into a documentary.

This pic certainly is worth a thousand words...

Wow! What an adventure...

His original mount was a Ural with a powered sidecar.

Here's where he exacts his revenge.

Be sure to stick around till 1:35 at least. The profanity gets thicker around then too.

Go Africa Twin!

Wow, this story is what I was hoping for when I tried watching long way round. This guy has accomplished an impressive feat.

Agreed, an amazing story.

But weren't we just making fun of a picture similar to this?

Wonder what the Vancouver man's rig would look like if his wife had decided to come?

Why do I fear that even with the bad encounters he had, it would've been worse if his passport was for the USA instead of Canada?

Would love to visit the places he and Ewen and Charlie have, but I don't think it's a 'go alone' trip anymore.
