This fellow just did finish an over 60,000 km ride around the world on Feb 8th. His site has a load of great video, pictures, audio, and text recounting the trip, people he met, challenges, etc. His diary is a great read, although you have to translate some of it from Danish.

I have really enjoyed reading about some of the wonderful places he rode through. Once in a lifetime kind of thing, that he was gracious enough to share with the world.

Enjoy.

Congrats to him. His website is well worth a read and it seems he put just as much effort into it as the trip itself. Gutted he finished, it made for some great armchair travelling with a nice cup of coffee.

Hold da op! Sikke en oplevelse!

He lives only 50km from me, apparently. But he says on his blog that he's allergic to small talk, so I guess it's best we don't meet...

Does anyone know what the brand of jacket he is wearing in the European transistion video by chance?

It's a Norrøna. Maybe the Svalbard Dri3 Jacket, but not 100%. I'm sure the European versions are little different than the US.

They make nice gear.

It has been a joy to watch his trip develop. I offered him a place to stay when he came through my town, but he'd already been offered and taken up with someone else.
