The Swedish Link – Part I

My job of working with Edelweiss is pretty fun generally, but over the years I've come to really like riding my motorcycle in a bit more of an adventurous way, something that is not that common among Edelweiss' tour program. That's why I wanted…

Midnight Trucking

When I finished my Celtic Tour, there was still a big list of tasks waiting for me. First up was delivering the motorcycles from the tour to various new destinations. I'd be driving the trusty Edelweiss Iveco Daily van I got so used to, just…

Celtic Tour

All sorts of warning signs announce the start of the road. "Narrow Route, Severe Bends", "Cars and Lights Vehicles Only" they state. It's claimed to be the steepest in Europe and one of the most challenging in England. Let's see if me and…

Week Two at the Krishna Village

As I sit on the bus back to Brisbane, staring out of the window, I think back at the second wonderful, positive week I just had. I don't think I've ever before said such a genuine, heartfelt goodbye to so many people. I guess I can say I'm…
