You can see complete details of their journey including photos, ride reports, and even financial costs on their web site at www.ultimatejourney.com.
They spent just over $100,000.00 dollars, and had an adventure that would fill several lifetimes. In the process they set a new Guinness World Book of Records record for the longest trip on motorcycles by two partners.

I recently had a chance to talk to them about their ultimate trip, and what type of endurance it took to travel the world on two wheels?
It’s easier than you might think. It just takes a lot of courage, and a lot of belief in the goodness of human nature.
Oh yes...it also takes a good deal of faith in the three day rule.
What’s the three day rule?
You’ll just have to listen to find out.
