I can recall how many times during our Central Asian moto journey did I wish I would have had the right equipment for camping. Educated by [...]
I bet most of you have never heard of BigTank. It's not just any Big Tank, it's the online magazine for rally and long distance riders in Japan. I've always had some sort of attraction to exotic and unique things. One of them is Japan, its culture and its people. Not [...]

It hasn't been quite as simple though. Our riders have faced +45C/113F scorching temperatures in the Sahara Desert. At least the "road" conditions have been fairly tolerable in Western Africa and corruption and bureaucracy have been on their side as well. I won't be telling you a "yawn" story of [...]
There's nothing misleading about the title. Supposedly the first Honda Africa Twin 1000 is making its way back to its legendary roots: the western African country's capital, Dakar.
