New bike, new phone, bigger engine, crappier camera

It's good to be home.

MOT mileage history 😂 The database gave a warning of excessively high mileage based on previous readings. Plus the odometer cable was snapped for 3,000miles. One advisory - worn brake disks - no shit.

Before and after, what a difference 3 years and 50,000 miles makes. As you can probably tell from the white stuff littering the ground the after photo was taken a few weeks back, since then she's been stripped down and rebuild and is now probably cleaner than when we left in 2015. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #kriega #yss

Packing up the tent for the final time, the final morning on the final day. By mid November the nights get long, 14 dark hours long. 14 hrs is a long time to lay in a tent amongst scrub and sage with nothing but your own thoughts. A million memories of the past 3 years replayed in my mind and the future was unknown, but I was ready to go home, I'd been ready for longer than I realised, and I was happy. It is done. One bike, Two tents, Three front tires, Six rears, Six flats, One crash, Three chains, Three sprockets, Thirty three countries, Two cam chains, Three stators, Fifty thousand miles, 926 days, Countless amazing people, And a lifetime of bloody great memories. Thanks everyone. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #kriega #yss

Well if you ever plan to motor west Just take my way it's the highway that's the best Get your kicks on Route 66 Well it winds from Chicago to L.A. More than 2000 miles all the way Get your kicks on Route 66 Cheers for the the tips Chuck

Here's the first of the last few photos from the trip. It's all slowly becoming a distant memory. Wouldn't mind seeing the sun again, last spotted behind a gray cloud some time last week, English winter how I haven't missed you. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel

Merry Christmas you lot. Festive Throwback - Myanmar - Christmas 2015, crossing the Thai - Myanmar border dressed like this raised a few eyebrows. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel

The big hole again. Remember kids, geology rocks.

Same hole, another perspective - Whitmore Canyon Overlook - one of only 3 places you can ride into the Grand Canyon, and definitely the toughest. 5 miles down an old lava flow, made all the more arse twitching when you're riding on 2 tyres with less rubber on them than a Durex ultra thin. On the plus side I had the canyon to myself for the day. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #usa #trumpistan #arizona

Same hole, different perspective. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #usa #trumpistan #arizona

Arizona - Where there's big holes in the ground. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #usa #trumpistan #arizona

How do you like your coffee on a morning? With an amazing view of the Grand Canyon please.

Get Some. Utah, where guns are easier to buy than beer over 4%.

50,000miles in and the bike gets better with every one. I'm pretty sure Suzuki never had a trip like this in mind when the DRZ was on the drawing board, but she's never missed a beat or left me stranded. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #kriega #yss #usa #trumpistan #california

I think this rates as my favourite photo from the USA. In my mind's eye I had so many ideas for photos that just never worked out, even after moving the bike, moving the camera and changing location. This one on the other hand; stopped the bike, put down the camera, set the timer, walked towards the mountain and walked back to the camera - perfect. Back on the bike and riding across the desert in less than 2 minutes. In hindsight the only thing I would change, getting naked first. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #kriega #yss #usa #trumpistan #california

The early bird catches the worm. After spending a couple of nights at the Saline Valley Hot Springs I'd washed a way the grime of a week in the desert, but I'd also seen enough worms, of the nudest variety. I'll just enjoy the sunrise thankyou very much. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #USA #trumpistan #california #deathvalley

22,000 miles on this front tyre, all I had to do was nurse it another 500 to LA. Time to ride Titus Canyon. #advriders #advridersofinstagram #advlife #motorcyclelife #motorcycle #dualsport #dualsportlife #dualsportadv #suzuki #drz #rtw #ridetheworld #adventurerider #nodirtnoglory #roundtheworld #motorcycletravel #usa #trumpistan #california
