Supporters

I''m very greatful for all the help and I received from my family and friends. Thank you very much for all your support!
I would also like to thank the following companies for supporting me with equipment. Over the course of my journey I will keep updating this site with 'real-world' equipment reviews. I would like to emphasize that I only received free or discounted/cost-prize
equipment, and no financial support.

All items have been carefully chosen for their functional design and outstanding build quality. The limited space on the bike means to concentrate on the essentials, and long-distance overlanding demands top quality gear that's tough enough to deal with all conditions.

Note: The below list is still incomplete as I am currently in the process of approaching companies for equipment support. If you would like to make a financial donation, please have a look at the charity section. Thank you!

		Overland Solutions have provided me with a first-class pannier system. Their build-quality is second-to-none and every item is built to order: 3mm powdercoated aluminium; 35l capacity each; stainless steel rack with two separate extra-large hidden toolboxes.
		FenixTorch have sent me a sample of their fantastic L2D LED-torch, including a diffuser for spreading light inside the tent. Two standard AA-batteries provide between 1 and 50 hours of light (depending on the power setting). For emergencies the torch has a built-in "SOS" morse-signal.
Stanfords Bookshop		Stanfords is London's first address when it comes to travel guides/literature and maps. They kindly provide me with the appropriate maps for this journey.
		Icebreaker produce the perfect clothing for a trip like this: 100% pure merino wool. They kindly provided some items from their latest super-thin 150g baselayer range. Merino wool cools in the heat & warms when it's cold. It dries within a few hours, and it doesn't smell.
		Pixgreen Media Factory are specialists in pr-press and advertising. They have kindly provided the world maps and logos for motorcycle and panniers.
