The next 19,000 kilometers - November 2011 to April 2013

We feel like seasoned travellers - two motorcycles and endless tar!

Over the last two years we have really enjoyed our motorcycles. The BMW R1200R has done 20,000 kilometres, Thea's Triumph Bonneville has done 8,000 kilometres and the BMW 650 GS had done 10,000 kilometres when we sold it. Between us we have enjoyed every one of the +/- 38,000 kilometres that we have travelled. We always travel together (besides the odd short town trip that I may do), this is our hobby, this is our together time, long may it last. 

Below I have attempted to show the places we have been on our motorcycles:

That is our story, this brings us to the present, we trust that you have enjoyed viewing our story as much as we have in riding each and every kilometre. From here on in the posts will be shorter but Thea and I promise to find new roads, new places, new adventures and to take good photographs to document our travels.
