well done to the guy!
Nick is one of my biking hero's, I have actually shook hands with him and his lovely wife a few years ago at the NEC motorcycle and scooter show and it goes without saying I always like to follow his antics on TV.
I think apart from the fantastic goals he achieves, what I admire about him the most is the sheer guts and determination he has to reach these targets on a motorcycle all on his own. How many people would travel on a motorcycle to foreign lands on their own :?:

No, I don't think thats the same bloke Stu :!: I know he use to race cycles (Tour de France etc) years ago and I think he was pretty good at that, he also piloted hot air balloons among other jobs :!:

You are most definitely right there Larry :!: I have seen on different trips Nick has done before that the USA has got some breath taking sites, but I hadn't realised that Australia has also :!: :!:
