Great video of a even greater adventure! What a trip!
You must be completely insane however to cover 14500 km in just 12 days and even survive!
Is not really my 'ballgame', so to speak  ;)

Excellent and thank you for sharing this.
How would you rate the Crosstourer on an epic journey like that?

Josep didnt make the ride...

I saw this video when I was looking for a new bike. Crazy I must say  :o

So he was just riding, more than a thousand km per day... well he must have stressful job or bad marriage to get away :D

Fantastic film. I just made time to watch it.
Some of those roads were so bad, I thought they were in England!
