Inspiring and comforting in differing ways. Oh and prep link just by showing what we are capable of when set minds to it and that we dont necessarily need to rely on 4x4 behemoths

Pretty incredible really, to think we rely on vehicles for going anywhere! I have to admit it, there are many occasions where I take my car to the shop thats only a 10 minute walk away

It really puts the 4x4 at the bottom of the priority list.
This guy has traveled around the world on a 125cc Motorbike, over all terrains with just the cloths on his back and a bag of gear. He said when he gets to different villages, he will do some menial work (for possibly weeks) to buy food and fuel. What an experience though!
