Motorrad Abenteuer, the famous German overlanding magazine, has just published this interview with me on the books, and the journey. I met journalist and photographer Andreas Hulsmann when I was doing a presentation at the Touratech Adventure Travel weekend earlier in 2012. We sat to chat in a not so quiet corner on a sunny day…
Heard of Biker FM? I hadn’t until a year ago when a friend mentioned them to me. By that time I’d been involved with the Side Stand Up show in the USA so was interested to hear that an online radio show for motorcyclists was available in the UK.
One of the presenters concentrates on the world of adventure motorcycling so I was delighted to be invited on his show…
We are there at last and what a great adventure this has been! ‘Into Africa’ has just been released as an Audio Book. When I realised that hardly any motorcycle travel books have been released as audio books, I thought it would be fun to have a go…

Let’s start with Lois. Lois Pryce I mean. I wonder how many motorcyclists haven’t heard of Lois, her two […]
By 10.30 the parking area was full and bikes were stretched down the road for hundreds of yards in both directions. I stood at the doorway to the Cafe for just a moment and all I could hear was the confident burble of overlanding bikes and the cheerful natter…
It’s a week now since the London Motorcycle Show, and that’s given me the chance to catch up, and to ponder a few things…
