        MAARTENS MOTOR BIKE TALES
 
 
 
 
Bairdstravel would like to introduce to you Maartensworld.He travelled round the world with Pam.
Pam is a Honda XRV750 Africa Twin, model RD07A build in 1996.  Even though she is a pretty sturdy bike, a few modifications were necessary. Traveling around the world can not be compared with day to day street use.  

 

         MAARTENSWORLD

For more than three years Maarten traveled on his motorbike around the world. From Europe through Asia to Australia, and from South America to Alaska.  100,000 miles of culture, adventure and most of all butt-pain.

Well aware of his own 'unsophisticated' view on the world,tells his tales the way he experienced them himself. He is no hero, not even a real adventurer. As he says himself: "he is just stupid and naive", and that combination leads him into, through and out of many unusual situations.

 

 

PLEASE TAKE TIME TO VISIT Here are some photographs from Maarten`s  Aussie adventure. to see the rest of his photo`s and stories  from around the world please take time to visit   http://www.maartensworld.com/

It took 3 years to ride around the world. That was the easy part. Then it took 2 years to write, rewrite, delete, recover, select and shape-up a collection of stories about it. The worst part was editing. Reading, re-reading, correcting, re-reading. I must have read every story a dozen times. Am I the only author that has a love-hate relation with his book?

Anyway, it is finished.  285 pages of adventure, culture and most of all, butt-pain.

A little over a hundred photos add to the 'tales of the road'. And all this for the price of around 15 euros
