One of the main messages I think that we want to convey during and after the course of this expedition is that anyone can do what we are doing. Sure, we are all exceptionally intelligent, sociable and good looking here at TWBR, but honestly, all it takes is an idea or a dream and the […]

One Wild Road
May 26, 2008 – 9:45 am
I am sure you have probably all been wondering what the hell has been going on with the expedition. Well, the quick and dirty answer is twofold: a lot and not much. In the last five and a half weeks we have managed to drive a grand total of about 360 kilometers. We were stuck […]
What Is Wrong With People?
May 3, 2008 – 1:46 pm
Sitting here in Pointe Noire, Congo, I am starting to go a little crazy. It has been nearly two weeks since we arrived and applied for our Angola visas and we are still waiting. I have been trying to pass the time by reading and reflecting upon the Africa segment of our journey and given […]
Going Through A Rough Patch
April 24, 2008 – 8:23 am
We have not posted anything in a few days, but honestly, we have had a lot of other things on our minds. We are, without a doubt, at one of the most difficult points in the expedition here in the Congo. After securing relatively difficult to obtain visas for both the Republic of the Congo […]
This One Takes The Cake
April 9, 2008 – 12:49 pm
We have covered a lot of miles on The World by Road and the terrain we have driven is as diverse as the countries we have passed through. Obviously, the road can get pretty bad from time to time and it always leads to the same question: Is this the worst road we have been […]

Sorry for the lack of content lately. We have been working on it a ton, but finding a place to upload is nearly impossible. Our hope is for it all to start tomorrow. We have not forgotten about you, just lacking in resources. TIA.
New Video – Burkina Faso – TIA – Getting Air in a Tire
March 28, 2008 – 7:44 am
This journey has proven and disproved many thoughts and ideas I had about the world. Many of the ideas I have come from movies I have seen. Most of the time when I see an American Hollywood movie about a place I just assume that everything is dramatized and most likely adapted to make the […]

Welcome To The Middle Of Nowhere
March 24, 2008 – 10:37 am
“Welcome to the middle of nowhere!” This was the friendly response we got from several people as we pulled into the remote and dusty town of Timbuktu. For us here at The World by Road, Timbuktu is an important stopover on our way around the world. I can now say that I have literally driven […]
Everyone Should Have An Entourage
March 23, 2008 – 10:45 am
I do not know about you, but every now and then, I wonder what it would be like famous. I wonder what it would be like to have a crowd of people follow you around, to have people come from miles just to catch a glimpse of you. Well, I guess I got a pretty […]
