As I sit typing this last post back in Blighty, I find it hard to comprehend what has happened over the last few weeks. No individual incident seems enough to warrant such a dramatic decision to end the trip, and yet I know I have made the right choice. In an instant the dream could [...]
I'm currently sitting in another hotel room, this time in a town called Agadir on the Western Coast of Morocco. Africa baby, it's here at last! Apologies for it being so long since the last post folks, I've been trying to camp as much as possible, but keep ending up getting last minute hotels or [...]
Rain, sleet, nights under the stars, 4 tracks, 1st near death experience of the trip, and not a stripper in sight. Honest! Well that just about sums up the last 8 days since we spoke so I may as well leave it there then. Day 3 – France, Belgium & The Netherlands Oh ok, I'll [...]
So it finally arrived! After almost 3 years of planning, a lot of begging, persuading, persistence and just plain brass neck, I was suddenly there at the Cenotaph in Whitehall, London, at 8am on Monday the 1st October 2012, bike packed and ready to be ridden 100,000 miles around the world.

To say I'm excited would be like saying I'm a little on the lardy side! With only 3 days to go before the big off, I'm looking all dapper in my glad rags, newly painted lid and freshly wrapped beast. And it's not just the cosmetics that are coming together either! Under the help and [...]
Take three big events, in three separate parts of the country, over three different days, and mix with one bike that has to be at all three, and what do you get? Over 2,000 miles, pain, and an idea of what is to come on the TeapotOne trip ahead! Twitter UK Bike Meet Friday just [...]
With the very first and last stages of the TeapotOne.com trip incorporating sea crossings, I was either going to have to ride really, really fast and hope for the best, or take a ferry. It is with huge pleasure, and not some amount of relief, that I proudly announce P&O Ferries as the latest corporate [...]
After a lot of stress, a lot of sweat, and a lot of preparation, Sat 19th May 2012 saw the inaugural TeapotOne Rugby 7's & Family Fun Day finally arrive at Imber Court in Esher, Surrey. With the weather looking like it may actually play ball, it was a bright and early start (although not [...]
It's snuck up on us fast this one, but this Friday see's me start the British Super Bike Enduro ride which will take four days to complete and cover almost 2,000 miles and NINE (9) tracks. I'll be riding over to Assen in the Netherlands on Thursday afternoon and setting up camp with my Vango [...]
"Ow's about that then!" I'm over the moon to welcome 'Fast Bikes' as official media partner of TeapotOne. Their philosophy is all about just getting out and enjoying your bike no matter what you ride or where you ride it. This is perfect for my journey ahead where I'll be taking my sportsbike way out [...]
