Rob Thomson's Japan to London Bent Trip
Rob Thomson is in Turkey just beyond the half way point of his bent journey from Japan to London. His 9300 mile ride started on 7/17/06 and he expects to be done in March of 07. While a lions share of his ride to date has been on board a train across China, he's averaging 60 miles a day on the roads of Eastern Europe where few people have seen a recumbent bicycle and the challenge is just getting thru the bureaucracy of just being allowed to to ride in such territory.
Do be sure to get to his web. There are videos there and a blog that you can use to send him a note of encouragement. It is well thought out and extremely well done:
