Story

Originally set up to raise funds as part of our adventure from Argentina to Alaska  in 2015.  Recently updated to include a planned ride around the world

The Long Way Up - February to June 2015

Steve Mason, Raymond Danton and Wilson Hutchison

23,000 mile Pan American adventure from Tierra Del Fuego, Argentina on the southern tip of South America to Alaska 
80% Tarmac roads. Countries : Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Panama, Costa Rica, ,Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, USA, and Canada. Used our own motorcycles - Boris, Sheila and Ludwig. 

Once around the Block by Motorcycle May 2018

Steve Mason 

12,000 mile ride around the world to be completed in two parts. Part 1 is from Scotland to Vladivostok in the far east of Siberia taking in Mongolia along the way. The second part will be a ride across North America. Steve will be riding Boris who completed the Long Way Up. 

Deafblind Scotland  recently opened a purpose built centre to serve deafblind people across. Scotland. The centre has been designed to ensure there are no barriers, where people can make best use of any residual sight and hearing they may have. Funds from the Long Way Up contributed to that build. Now  its all about maintenance and upkeep which is equally important. 

Please donate to this great cause. 100% of your donation goes to Deafblind Scotland.
