Travels on a Motorbike

Hi, my name is Ollie. In Autumn 2008 I decided I wanted to spend 2009 travelling through Latin America. To make life a little more interesting I thought I would do the journey on a motorbike. Apart from not know much about Latin America or motorbikes the main obstacle to fulfilling this dream was that I couldn’t ride a motorbike.

It has turned out to be rather a steep learning curve. I’ve written up fair amount of what I’ve learnt whilst planning for my trip on my Greasy Sprocket website. So if you’re thinking of doing something similar please take a look. I’ll be updating this blog with further information as I discover it (most likely the hard way). I also plan to jot down other bits and pieces about my travels.
