Are you going for the challenge of being the first, or for the girls in the photos? Or perhaps the challenge of the girls in the photos!black_labb said:One hobby, cycle touring is getting the better of me lately. Being thinking/planning a ride along the BAM railway maintenance road in siberia. It's about 4000km of (here's a link about a trio of motorcyclists attempting it http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=533442 ).
I'm thinking about putting off more of university and other hobbies to ride the road. I'd be pretty chuffed to end up being the first person on a pushbike to have finished it, and one of less than 10 people to do the whole route on any vehicle since the collapse of the soviet union. On the other hadn there is a reason so few people travel the road (actually more like a firetrail with collapsed bridges and lots of mud)
I think I am a problematic optimist, though failing something drastically might bring me back down to earth
Either way, looks like it'd be an awesome trip.
