You might be interested in the bike ride around the world I did. Through Europe (along the Danube most of the way), the Caucuses, Central Asia including the Pamir Highway, China and the USA. More info and photos at http://www.tombrucecycling.com
Here's the route:
And the bike:
See you on the Bear Bones with Sandy (my RTW bike) , hope it's sunny!

Is a RTW bike a "Ride to Work" bike? :)

RTW = round the world

Re: Bike ride around the world
I assume you won't be packing quite so much gear Tom?See you on the Bear Bones with Sandy (my RTW bike)
May the bridges you burn light your way
Re: Bike ride around the world
You assume right! Although rear wheel traction is incredible with 23 kg of water over the back wheel...
Will be running with handlebar bag and stuff strapped on top of a rear rack I think. Had to rebuild rear wheel last night, was up til 2 doing it. Servicing disc brakes tonight. Hope it all holds together. Can't wait
