Nick Sanders - Parallel World, the toughest motorcycle journey around the world
|
19.08.2008 Nick Sanders has motorcycled around the world six times and is presently preparing for his seventh world tour, 'Parallel World' - on Continental Tyres. Nick Sanders is one of Britain’s great adventurers, having circumnavigated the globe no fewer than six times by motorcycle. But where Nick differs from the Ewans and Charleys of this world (also lovers of Conti rubber), is that his expeditions are no holiday. Nick’s 2005 record for riding over 19,000 miles around the world stands at just 19 days and three hours. And this was done aboard a wholly inappropriate (or so you would expect - Nick thinks it’s perfect) Yamaha R1.
In April, Nick sets off on his most extreme expedition yet. ‘Parallel World’ will see our intrepid adventurer cover around 55,000 miles - up and down and all around the globe, the longest possible way, through 49 countries in just over 100 days .... with ContiRoad Attack his preferred choice! "When I rode around the world in 19 days I was getting over 7000 miles out of the rear tyre, not bad on an R1! In my view and with my experience, there is simply no better tyre than the ContiRoadAttack."
55,000 Miles, 45 Countries, 120 Days ! Parallel World, the toughest motorcycle journey around the world |
