Riding the Dream: People of Ancash region

The chosen bike

many ask me why I chose the Suzuki DR 350 - It's light, has the speed I need, easy to fix, easy to lift in boats, handles well on rough roads, it's bullet proof. I've been extremely happy with this bike, with over 80 000 km still keeps me going. A bigger bike would sure be nice on major highways, but for me it's about taking the more remote roads as possible. And a bigger bike, also means more expensive to maintain. Once I got to Uruguay, I knew I would be riding the coast of Brasil north. With many surf spots along the way, a surfboard was mandatory. I created a rack to carry my board from Re-bar. Does the trick.

On the final day of September 2007, I left Jasper Alberta Canada without any agenda, plans or time. Living simply from my passion of photography and writing, living a freedom life while riding my Suzuki DR 350 motorcycle in search of rock climbing, surfing and experiencing different cultures along the way.

Riding over 100 000 km, 19 countries in 4 1/2 years through sun, rain, mud, snow, sand, high mountain passes, deep jungle to horrible stinky traffic ... with a surfboard on my side and all the climbing and camping gear...

A journey I will never forget.
