But who needs a 175cc twin to go round the world? Nathan Millward did it on a CT110 "Postie bike". This is a version of the Cub developed for the Australian postal service.

Wow, I couldn't imagine riding all that way on such a small bike. Not that it wouldn't be enjoyable but I think my butt/knees would be too sore after the first 400 miles or so.
ReplyDeleteYes, It takes a certain type of person to tackle journeys like these. When talking to Nathan he said he typically rode for 14 hours per day at a cruising speed of 37 mph.
