This is no coincidence as the Australian Postal Service have worked with Honda for many years to produce an exceptionally simple, reliable and safe load-carrying variant of the already legendary C90. Nathan's bike proved to be an astute choice with only 'wear and tear' components needing to be replaced. He rode West at a steady 50mph from New York to Las Vegas (and later Alaska), passing through many of the backwater towns and communities which have become isolated from corporate America by interstate and freeway construction. His second adventure saw him 'post' his bike to America during a period of soul-searching and uncertainty following the publication of his first book. His adventure took nine months and covered 23,000 miles through eighteen separate countries including East Timor, India, Nepal, China, Pakistan, Krygyzstan, Kazakhstan, Russia and Ukraine. Nathan's first big adventure started a few weeks prior to the expiration of his Australian work visa, which - with just four days planning - saw him purchase a bright red Honda CT110 'Postie' bike named Dorothy and ride it back to his family home in England. Well spotted! We booked Nathan Millward to speak to our Group on the strength of a recommendation made by a fellow member.

Who was it and what did he talk about? James:

It looked as though you had a world-renowned adventurer talking about his motorcycle travels. You recently posted some interesting photos on the Wiltshire Facebook Group of your monthly meeting.
