"
Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure.Life is either a daring adventure or nothing." Helen Keller
At 69 years old I will set-out on the 18th of April 2025 on an 18,000km motorcycle ride through 34 Countries starting from Dublin Dockside Ireland (the extreme West of Europe) and heading on a spaghetti route in a generally westerly direction across the UK into the Low Lands and across the Austrian Alps into the Balkans.
The route to the port of Tarifa Portugal (the most southern point in Europe) will circumnavigate Italy and snake along the Mediterranean coastline into Andorra in the Pyrenees (French Alps) and drop into Portugal.
Crossing the Straits of Gibraltar into Tangier the desert run begins southwards across Sahara-Maghreb through the Sahel into West African rain forest is a unique opportunity to walk-my-talk.
My magic number is to interact with 10,000 people face to face in 90 on-road day. Your donations to this crowd funding will beyond making the epic adventure happen will provide seed funding for 25 projects related to " Mental health of the Boy Child" selected from project plans presented by JCI (Junior Chamber International) local chapters spread across Europe, the Balkans, North Africa and West Africa ( Countries on my 18,000km route)
