Nick Sanders has graciously agreed to answer questions about his epic trip, three times the length of the Americas in just over three months. To catch up on some of the details, go to http://www.nicksanders.com/2011/parallel_world.html, or the ride report on Advrider.com . http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=694112

I'm sure many of you followed his trip - 46 days from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska to Ushuaia, Argentina AND RETURN. On a Super Tenere. And you wondered how the hell he did it! And how did the bike go? Now you have a chance to ask him directly... Go here and add your question to the COMMENTS section.

No questions yet? I have a million but sure you guys do too. Don't be shy :D

Dunno, maybe the comment section of the blog is a little intimidating - spammers don't think so! How about just leaving your questions in this thread instead?

What kind of stuff are the spammers posting?

"Appreciation for a write down! At the same time, My spouse and i seen that the Nourishes are certainly not doing work. Could you look into which?"

but I really like this one

"You happen to be so awesome man, the actual article with your information sites will be excellent fantastic."

Huh? Luckily I get to approve them before they appear on the site, but I don't get why or how these people waste their time, and mine...

Back to questions for Nick. NOT a waste of time - he has the most most miles of anyone on the planet on a Super Tenere (aside from perhaps factory testers).

Update from Nick!

Nick’s leading a tour to Morocco right now, and hasn’t been able to get to the Q&A just yet. The book and movie from the Pan-Am record are getting close to completion, you can pre-order here;

http://nicksanders.com/2011/incredible_ride.html

Here’s an update from Marrakesh;

Hi Guys
I have not forgotten you all and genuinely appreciate your interest, it is very flattering and if any of you are inspired to do a journey yourself, it must be a good thing? I’m presently in Marrakesh having a day off with my 20 clients. We have ridden from the south of Spain, across to the edge of the Sahara Desert at Merzouga beside the Erg Chebbi dunes and then we headed south east to Zagora. Yesterday we rode over the famous Tiz n’Test mountain pass to where we are now, Marrakesh. Another few days and we’ll be back in Spain and then my driver takes the bikes back to the UK and I fly home.

I am also writing the book of the ride and have called it The Incredible Ride – I’ve got a serious deadline for later next week and then I finish off editing the film. I think, it’s going to be a good read and watch, we will see, but I still remember how hard the journey was – it was tough. Anyway, enough of this and I will get the answers to Trevor’s questions done almost certainly today and we will stay i touch. Once again, thanks for your interest.

Nick Sanders
