Stewe_MK

@Stewe_MK

The Road to Dakar

The Africa Eco Race is the ultimate dream for many riders. Only the toughest riders are able to compete and finish the race. Long days on the bike dealing with heat, dust, exhaustion, lack of sleep and mechanical issues. Some riders can take it even further… Imagine the middle of Scandinavian winter with freezing temperatures and snow on the ground. Now get on your Rally Bike and ride down to the race and once you finish, ride all the way back again. Stewe did just that! What drives a man to do this? Come and find out! We promise a very interesting story with a good dose of Swedish humor. You may learn a thing or two about wheelies as well.

The Road to the Himalayas

Now, gearing up for a 6-month ride from the Netherlands to the Himalayas, she actually had time to prepare. Her grand strategy? Not much.
