The Route
View Because It Is There in a larger map
On March 28th 2010 I will be setting off from my home, in the small village of Mobberley, Cheshire in the UK and cycling through four continents and crossing two oceans arriving home approximately two years later. Due to the nature of the expedition my route is not set in stone and therefore can change drastically. I do however have a proposed route and here is that route.
After setting off from my home I will cross the channel and enter France, from there I will cycle east through to Eastern Europe and enter Russia via Ukraine. I will cycle through Russia, Kazakhstan, back into Russia then dropping into Mongolia crossing the Gobi Desert into China.
Once in China I will head down to Southeast Asia and cycle through to the tip of Indonesia where I will then cross the Timor Sea to Australia. I will then cycle south following the east coast of Australia finishing my first leg in Melbourne.
The next step is New Zealand. I will start on South Island, cycling up crossing to North Island. From here I hope to hitch a lift on a yacht and cross the South Pacific to South America.
Hoping to land in Chile, I will cycle into Argentina then head north through Bolivia, Peru and into Ecuador. I will bypass Columbia by boat to Costa Rica. Landing in Central America I will travel up through Mexico until I get to the USA.
Crossing the border into the USA I will cycle north up the west coast into California. From there I will cycle east across the States to the east coast and then up into Canada where I will find someway home (hopefully crossing to Iceland then across to the northern tip of Scotland and then back home)
