Are you a traveller on two wheels? Have you been inspired by the stories you've read on Horizons Unlimited? Or perhaps you watched the 'Long Way' series and it's got you thinking of a motorcycle trip to distant climes – the markets of Marrakech, the Karakoram Highway in Pakistan, the salt flats of Bolivia, the Bungle Bungles of Australia, the Pan American to Tierra del Fuego?
Did you finally fork out for that dream bike built for high adventure, and you know every highway and byway within range of an annual vacation? Is something indefinable calling you farther afield… to the next country… the next continent?
But you've got questions. Is it safe? What do I need to know? Where and when should I go? And what the hell’s a carnet anyway?
Answering these questions - and many more - is the goal of the new, definitive 'how-to' DVD series, The Achievable Dream - The Motorcycle Adventure Travel Guide.
This series is produced by Grant and Susan Johnson, RTW travellers and founders of Horizons Unlimited, who have been helping people to achieve their dreams of traveling to faraway places on their bikes for over 10 years.
The third DVD in the series, On the Road, reveals what is it like to spend weeks, months or years on the road? In this 2-DVD
set, veteran travellers share their tips (and great stories)
for staying healthy, happy and secure on your motorcycle adventure.
You'll get the advice you need to help you cross borders, break down language
barriers, overcome culture shock, ship the bike across oceans or war zones, and
deal with the 'stuff' that happens such as breakdowns and emergencies. Demos
include building a shipping crate and first aid for bikers.
