The idea was simple. Take a sports bike (GSXR 1000) and ride it around the world to raise as much money as possible for my chosen charities, Riders for Health, Born Free Foundation, SSAFA (Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Families Association) and the St Christopher's Hospice. (see website for details www.teapotone.com)

Whilst riding around the world I was going to visit various projects affiliated with my charities, helping out where I could, and raising awareness of them through documentation via video and diary blogs, digital filming for a DVD and book I would produce after the trip was finished. As Riders is the official charity of the motoGP I figured why not visit each motoGP track around the world and complete a lap of each one on the same bike I'm dragging around the world through deserts, mud plains, rocks and jungle! Easily said isn't it?

This was one of one of the first meetings I had with a friend of mine who will be helping with the planning and organisation behind the trip. Here we just plotted the locations of the projects, motoGP tracks and various sightseeing spots I wanted to visit, down onto a big map and the route just kind of jumped out at us.

Since this vid was taken I've altered the route slightly, see website www.teapotone.com for current route. I've also dropped SSAFA as one of my charities, again see website for details. 

I may be replacing SSAFA with another charity but I'll update the website www.teapotone.com with details as soon as we get them.

Enjoy folks and come back again soon. Don't forget to sponsor me at the website please!
