Important - read at first:


After 44 years - on 18th.09.2014 - I decided to stop my researches on: "How were all continents discovered 1885-2014 by motorcycle-travellers?" The reason is that I have been sitting with all my passion behind the computers and reading books and articles for years day and night to come to the knowledge of these sites.
I am still full of other ideas including some travels. Also I want to move a bit more for my health instead of sitting too long behind the computer.

You can use all information for yourself. If you use infos and fotos for any other reason like publications please know, that there is still Copyright on all of it by myself and others.

I am German. I did my best to write most in English. If I missed some ,,,,,,,,, please take some of these and put them on the right place (Churchill)!

2023


Magnus Welz 2020-2021 beim Zusammenschrauben seiner gebrauchten YAMAHA XT 600 AJ.
 
Über "the purpose" habe ich mir jetzt eine ganze weile Gedanken gemacht.
Das Vorhaben war nie eine rationale oder bedachte Entscheidung, vielmehr hat sich in mir als ich angefangen habe mich mit selbstfahrenden Reisenden zu beschäftigen das Gefühl gefestigt: das musst du machen! Dieses von Gedanken über Sinn, Zweck oder Abwägungen über Vor- und Nachteile unabhängige Gefühl begründete die Entscheidung zu der Unternehmung.
Ohne mich in nichtsagenden klischeehaften Begriffen zu wälzen versuche ich zumindest mal die mir wichtigste Erwartung an die Reise kurz zu fassen, obgleich die Entscheidung eigentlich schon gefallen war bevor ich mir irgendwelche Erwartungen oder Gründe erdacht hatte.
Kurzum: um, im positiven wie im negativen, intensiv zu fühlen und zu leben. (to, in both positive and negative ways, feel and live intensely)

Magnus Welz
(*08.06.2001 in Sigmaringen)

- Plan Around-The-World in 2023. He plans to ride overland to Australia and then...
2021: Magnus studiert Fahrzeug- und Motorentechnik in Stuttgart. "Ich hege schon länger die Sehnsucht nach einer längeren Motorradreise. 2020 habe ich mir eine 1988er 3AJ zu einem sehr günstigen Preis (weil sehr schlechter Zustand) gekauft. Das Motorrad, das fast 15 Jahre nicht gestartet worden ist, habe ich über den letzten Winter überholt und neu aufgebaut. 2021-10 läuft die Maschine gut und ich bin aktuell auf meiner ersten kleinen Tour unterwegs in Italien".

Purpose of your tour: .."Das Vorhaben war nie eine rationale oder bedachte Entscheidung, vielmehr hat sich in mir als ich angefangen habe mich mit selbstfahrenden Reisenden zu beschäftigen das Gefühl gefestigt: das musst du machen!

Kurzum: um, im positiven wie im negativen, intensiv zu fühlen und zu leben. (to, in both positive and negative ways, feel and live intensely)" Route: Zuerst Richtung Osten bis Russsia (Vladivostok)- von dort nach Süd-Ost-Asien, Australien, Südamerika, Nordamerika und wieder zurück nach Europa.

- Plan solo Around.-The-World with an Ural-Sidecar.


Map out of his website: 2023.02.02 so far. Plan Aound Australia

      
Norway:North Cape. > Russia (Moscow) > Argentina (Ushuaia)

Jean-Louis Souchiere (French, *1959)  https://www.polarsteps.com/JeanLouisSouchiere
Around-The-World. French Jean-Louis Souchiere plans to circle solo the world with an Ural-Sidecar with app. 100.000 km..
Purpose of your tour: Complete a solo world tour on an Ural Sidecar.
Route and Project details: Project started in spring 2020. Initially the intent was to go east to west but due to borders close because of pandemie Covid Illnes I had to return from Vladivostok to France by Flight or overland by sidecar? With the reopening of the borders (2021 in Europe and 2022 for Americas), I went west to east starting from France and then crossing Canada, USA, Mexico, Central America and South America down south to Ushuaia. Next step now is to go to Australia for a full round tour of Australia. I will then ship the bike back to Europe. Currently 72,000 km, end of tour estimate: 100,000 km.
The Best: Encounters and friendship. New friends in Russia, Chile and USA. Russia allowed me to cross border in 2020 despite Covid Lockdown. British Colombia, Alaska and Costa Rica wildlife. Andes landscapes.
The Worst: Australian Customs. WHY? Two thieves tried to steal me without success in Quito. I had to have my tooth ripped out in Argentina. I was stuck for a month in Peru because of the demonstrations.
Important useful information for others: Carnet is not necessary for Russia and Americas but Mandatory for Australia. Shipping from EU to Canada by air flight is simple, relatively cheap and very straightforward. It is a real nightmare and very costly from any place to Australia. One may consider to buy a local bike and resell it before leaving there.
Book or publication: See my diary on https://www.polarsteps.com/JeanLouisSouchiere
Earlier motorcycle-travel-experiences: 2015: Route 66 on a Harley (4,000km). 2018: Paris to North Cape and return on Honda Africa Twin (8,000 Km). 2019: Bangkok to Paris on Honda Africa Twin (24,000 km), 2019: Queensland (AUS) tour on Harley (3,000km).

Organization:
01.02.2023: 1st information by sidecar-traveller-club.
01.02.2023: I asked Phileas about his tour and infomrmed him about the Tesch-Travel-Treffen www.teschtreffen.de In 2024 Jean-Louis Soucheriehe can make it and offer possibly a slide-show in Malmedy end of april.
01.02.2023: Phileas: It is a kind of diary where I put my daily reports every nights. Yes, I am happy with my Ural but you must accept all mechanical problems because there are many. At the end of the day it is money and time as always. But Ural brings you millions of smile, thumbs up and dozens of new friends and this has no value.

Sinje Gottwald

Sie kündigte vor drei Jahren ihren Job und ging mit einer alten BMW GS auf Weltreise. Hier spricht Sinje über die Lust am Abenteuer – und ihre Liebe zum Auto.

Heinrich Lingner
09.10.2020

Du bist mit dem Motorrad 100 000 km um die Welt gefahren. Wie ist deine Reise- und Abenteuerlust geweckt worden?

So richtig weiß ich eigentlich nicht, wie das entstanden ist. Ich wollte immer schon raus, sehen, wie es in der Welt aussieht, wie die Leute leben. Aber ich glaube, es waren meine Eltern, die sind mit uns Kindern einfach losgefahren, ohne genaues Ziel. Meist hieß es nur: Morgen fahren wir los. Das war wohl der Start für meine Art des Reisens, die habe ich beibehalten.

Ihr seid mit dem Auto gefahren?

Ja, mit einem roten 80er-Jahre-VW-Bus, damals war der neu. Meine beiden Geschwister und ich haben

Special thoughts of Bernd Tesch:

During YOU Motorcycle-Traveller live:

The highest law of our universe is that it moves continually because of the opposite potentials of plus (+) and minus (-) powers. This means for our beloved world that even what you see on earth changes all the time. Even big mountains change by erosion through heat and cold, rain and ice and sand. Imagine what frozen ice can destroy! So you can never travel to the same place like it was before. Even if you do not notice the change it has changed. So it is not only worth to travel to new places but see old places again !

After YOU Motorcycle-Traveller die:
01.08.2000 After I updated this homepage several times with some hundred hours of work Patricia and I took some hours off. We wanted to relax in the nearby forest EIFEL conquering a water canal maximum 3 meters wide in the end coming out of the ground about ca. 9 kms somewhere up the hills. We both liked the nature very much with all the greens, sunshine and shade. During this walk we loved to discover a group of some hundred years old beech-trees (Buchen).
Then Patricia said: "In my next life I would like to be a beech-tree". This caused some thoughts in me: After we die 90 % water of our body will first go in the ground. It could be that a part of this water will help to create another plant or even a tree. So you mc-traveller could be a part of a beech-tree. Some of this water will evaporate in the air. Then the wind will blow your water somewhere and it will come down on earth or in the sea again. If the water comes down on earth a plant could grow with your water. A Motorcycle-Traveller could eat this plant. Then you are a part of a mc-traveller again. Or your rain could fall in a small river and another mc-traveller drinks clear water out of this river. Then you are a part of a mc-traveller again.

The very rest of your 10 % material could be eaten by bacteries. Bigger animals could eat these. Possibly this animal could be eaten by another animal and this by a mc-traveller. Then you are a part of a mc-traveller again. Possibly this mc-traveller will read this homepage. Then your soul is connected with your material again. This are some possible ways that YOU Mc-Traveller never die and will live for long times as a Motorcycle-TRAVELLER.

5 billion (Milliarden) years later ALL Motorcycle-Travellers will die:
Sun will kill all Motorcycle-Travellers. The sun will have extended so much in size because the indifference between gravity and escaping energy that she reaches the earth. All the heat will destroy all life on earth including ALL MOTORCYCE-TRAVELLERS. That´s it !
I hope you liked reeding this. I am just waiting for YOUR email helping me to update A LIFELONG job with passion.

Brazilian round-the-world motorcyclist Raphael Karran is taking time out in New Zealand to improve his English language skills for two months in Hamilton.
At an education fair in Brazil, Raphael heard about the courses run by the Language Institute at Waikato University and applied for a scholarship to coincide with his time in Australasia. The Institute granted him one and is planning to use Raphael’s story to help with promotion in Brazil.
Raphael, who is reporting for a Brazilian motorcycle magazine called Motociclismo Magazine, has already traveled 90,000 km through South and North America, Europe, Asia and part of Australia. He will return to Perth in December to continue his mission to Sydney, then finally to Africa.
He hasn’t been able to bring his bike with him to New Zealand because his visit here is only eight weeks and he would have had to disassemble his bike, have it quarantined, obtain registration and warrant certificates etc. This would have left him very little time to utilise it. His main purpose for visiting New Zealand is to improve his English and experience a bit of Kiwi culture.
Raphael dreamed of making the round-the-world trip since he was very young, and finally decided to do the trip while sitting in a traffic jam in Sao Paulo.
25.10.2012 Asked Emilio Scotto if he knows how to contact him.

We are planning to go around the world, probably breaking the record of the longest motorcycle ride ever done by a couple (around 100,000 miles / 160.000 km).We are riding together, each with a BMW F650GS/Dakar mounted with Touratech 39L tanks. We trained 8 weeks in Spain and Morocco.
Purpose of travel: Fun. Meeting the best girls / boys . Learn from people and share with others.
Route so far has been: Europe (France) by boat to Africa (Tunisia, Algeria, Niger, Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad, Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya (22,08.2003). The planned route from Kenya is: down Africa to Capetown, ship to Rio, down to Ushuaia, up to San Francisco, ship to Sydney, go all over the place in Australia, ship to Indonesia, drive all over the place in Thailand, Cambodge, Laos and Vietnam, ship to Nepal, drive all over India, then back to Europe for a big tour of the continent.
The best so far: ??

08.03.2002 From Pierre Saslawsky: Hello Bernd, I found your page about women travellers a little bit by chance (http://www.berndtesch.de/English/Continents/Women.html) It's interesting because earlier this month, I asked two related questions on the Horizons Unlimited bulletin board (http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/000252.html)
- How many people approximately (and how many women) have completed a round-the-world trip on a motorcycle?
- Do you know if a woman has successfully completed a round-the-world trip that includes crossing all of Africa including the Sahara? (ie. Morocco or Tunisia through South Africa by land). My girlfriend is up for the challenge. Thanks, Pierre

Merv and Ruth Homer started out on a motorcycle adventure, which took them through 32 countries over a period of 2 years. To raise money for the trip they sold their house, in the UK, bought a shaft-drive motorcycle and necessary equipment.
They had planned an overland route from the UK to Malaysia and then from Canada to Chile. These plans soon changed when war and civil unrest broke
out along the way. Undeterred, they went through the Middle East shortly after 9/11.2001 and entered Nepal when it was in a State of Emergency.
Purpose of travel: It was incredibly difficult leaving behind all their friends and family - but it was a journey they needed to do as they struggled to come to terms with the loss of their youngest daughter.
Route
: The epic 43,000-mile journey took them through France, Switzerland, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, India, Nepal, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, Canada, USA, Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, Peru, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Spain, Andorra and Germany.
Highlights: A motorcycle was the perfect vehicle for the adventure. Allowing them to travel where they wanted, when they wanted. From the remote rain forest regions to the centre of the Atacama desert - where it hardly ever rains - the driest desert on earth."

- Plan Around-The-World. Martin wants a Motorcyle Adventure and Documentary. He wants a motorcycle adventure for the benefit of underprivileged children. In conjunction with World Vision. I am embarking on Ride4Kids, an around-the-world overland trip on a motorcycle.
The best: The best of the Ride4Kids project include a motorcycle journey around the world including some of the world’s poorest and most rugged countries. Raising money for World Vision while visiting World Vision projects along the way. The filming of two documentaries; the first on the lives of children in Africa, Siberia and South America and the second on the adventures encountered during the trip; and ·the ability of people around the world to follow my journey through the Ride4Kids website. All proceeds raised from the screening of the documentaries will be donated to World Vision.The public is also invited to donate money or sponsor children through the Ride4Kids website.
I’ve embarked on the Ride4Kids project out of a desire to help underprivileged children and raise awareness of their standard of living. I think it will also be a great adventure and a remarkable achievement.
Earlier experiences: 1996 -1997 Australia (Melbourne) to France (Paris) overland, which was also made into a documentary.
Route: Australia (Melbourne - riding to Perth) - and then flying to Africa (South Africa (Cape Town) - Botswana - Zambia - Tanzania - Uganda - Kenya - Ethiopia - Sudan ? . Egypt) - Asia (Jordan - Syria) - Europe (Turkey - Ukraine - ? - Poland - Russia) - Asia (Russia, Siberia - Japan) - North-America (Canada - USA - Mexico - Guatemala - Honduras - Nicaragua - Panama) - South America (Colombia - Ecuador - Peru - Bolivia - Argentina).

Here you can write yourself the bibliographic datas in this database! This is another important promotion for your book! - If you want to give me an idea of your total tour it would be great. - at 27.th.-29th.april. 2018 I organise the "60th. Motorcycle-Meeting for World-Travellers 1977-201" in Malmedy / Belgium. In 2018 wil be the TOP-subject (which yearly changes) "Around-The-World". You will be invoted if you offer me your emai-Adress to berndtesch@gmail.com . All details you find as well in www.berndtesch.de - Bai-Bai Bernd Tesch. expert for mc-travels worldwide 1887-2017.
25.11.2014 For the past 15 months, Anna has ridden her KTM Adventure 1190 halfway around the globe from her Ukrainian home, spreading a simple message: Follow your dreams and good things will happen.
(If you want to follow Anna’s dream trip, check out her website, I Have a Dream, or her Facebook page.)
AG: Well, I just love to travel on the bike. I’ve been doing this for nine years before the world trip. When I came back from [my second trip to] India, I decided, “Why not make something global?” At first it was like a crazy idea, and I was scared of it: “No, I can’t do that. It’s so dangerous and so difficult. It’s not just one month’s travel – a few weeks.”
Earlier experiences: Since that time, all my life changed. Of course, I got new friends. I started to travel, first around Ukraine and then a little bit outside to Russia, Belarus, Moldova, then Eastern Europe, Turkey, Bulgaria, and into Greece, also. Then into Georgia. Then the Middle East: Syria, Jordan, Lebanon. Then India. That’s how it started, and that’s how it continues. And I was involved in the charity community. Since then, my life absolutely changed.
Plans: G: After Texas, I pick up my bike and I go to Mexico and the other Central American countries. From there, South America, the west coast: Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile, Argentina and Brazil. From Brazil, I go to South Africa, and I take the east coast of Africa and end up in Egypt. From Egypt, Europe. So, I think that I’ll be on the road two and a half years, altogether. So, probably, I’m exactly halfway through.
11.04.2018 Anna wrote very polite that she canNOR come to the 60.t, Meeting for Wold-Travellesr because of the reson of Europen Visa because her passort is from Ukraine.
12.04.2018 Next request for her blog like example "Müller".
