Over six months Tom, Katie and I took over 6500 photos. While we tried to put photos on the site as we traveled this became less frequent as we chose camping in strange places over the comforts of hostels with wifi. This left me with the mammoth task of sorting through and formatting pictures at [...]

It has been 43 days since Tom, Katie and I sat down to a wonderful home cooked Irish dinner and reminisced about how we conquered two continents. Now the adventures that enriched/challenged our daily lives seem to be fading fast and with the team +1 literally spread to the four corners of the earth there [...]

On October the 15th 2009, after completing a whopping 14,000 km Katie and I rolled into London with a sense of emptiness and a loss of what to do next. Our life on the road had all of a sudden come to an end. No more setting up camp, cooking and living in the wild. [...]

Here are some scans of articles about Braking Boundaries that have featured in the local press here in Northern Ireland over the last few days. From the Mid Ulster Mail: From Saturday’s News Letter:

The final stats are still being compiled and there are a mountain range of stories and video to be published, but the legwork is now over for the team.

Getting a Haircut or a shave in Turkey is definitely a must do. Not only do they provide you with tea and wait every time you go to drink it, they also do something that I had never experienced before. Watch and see.

With our trip to Vardzia complete we took what seemed to be the best road to Turkey which was no more than 200km away. Yes we knew there was a 2000 meter pass in between, but no asphalt, that was a surprise.

Getting to Vardzia can be done many ways. Car, Minibus, Taxi or bike. We decided to add a little adventure to our trip and combined a few of these Vardzia was definitely a highlight to our Georgian Experience.

No, not the cream. We seemed to find plenty of dirt road in Georgia. Here is what it’s like to ride it.

Despite a rocky/sandy start the roads of Azerbaijan soon turned into beautiful tree lined ups and downs. Now all we need to do is avoid the traffic.

Two days into riding Azerbaijan I became so dehydrated that I couldn’t ride so we decided to take an unscheduled day off and head to a place we read about in the lonely planet called Lahic. Here is how we spent our day off.

Hey everyone, The journey (for me) is almost over me. I’m currently killing time on the ferry to Dover and will be on English soil in about 20 minutes. The end, the real end is Belfast, and that’s not so far away. In response to (semi)popular demand, here’s a tenative itinerary for the week: Mon: [...]

20 days ago Katie and I said goodbye to our beloved team mate Tom and a day later left Istanbul on our own path through Europe. It came as a fantastic surprise that not more than 2 days later after getting off to a bad start and narrowly avoiding being washed away, Zee German (Thorsten) [...]
