Hi,

Just spotted this posting on Facebook which I think you will find interesting and I am jealous that he has the full backing from Triumph that have donated one of their bikes to this person to spend almost a year travelling the globe, and in aid of charity too.

Record breaking aboard a Tiger 800XC





Twenty two year old Rhys Lawrey left the Triumph motorcycle factory in Hinckley on Friday 2nd May 2014 to begin an epic record-breaking ride around the world.

Under the 2moroRider banner, Rhys plans to spend the next 12 months riding aboard his Triumph Tiger 800XC across six continents, travelling through 73 countries and covering 50,000 miles. When he returns in Spring 2015 he will be the youngest person to circumnavigate the world by motorcycle.

But you understand why he has the full backing of triumph... because hes not just a random 22 year old.. His dad is Kevin Saunders, the guinness world record breaking motorcycle adventure guy..

Just saying..

Otherwise, i'm 21 and would be all over that breaking his record. Ha.

See the last entry..

The person is posting video diaries and the latest one is in Istanbul and is being posted via Facebook, and worth watching too.
