This story has so many twists and wild tales in it that if you didn’t know it was all true, you’d think it a fantastic work of fiction. Dan Byers put everything on the line for his adventure of a lifetime and from the onset his plans have been upended so many times that it will leave you wondering how he remained so resilient. Not only that, but Dan’s story really highlights how motorcyclists look out for each other, how this common thread draws strangers together and creates friends for life.

Despite the multitude of problems and associated physical pain, he still experienced an incredible adventure, and no matter what happened he never seemed to waver from his goal of reaching Ushuaia by motorcycle.
