This was an unbelievable fifteen year ride throughout the world! Peter and Kay Forwood started in Australia on February 3, 1996 and finished in October of 2011. In October of 2008 their Harley-Davidson became the first and only vehicle to have been ridden in all the 193 internationally recognized countries of the world that existed at that time. Since then they have continued travelling, visiting places previously missed or returning to places they had a good laugh in. Their bike was purchased new in 1994 and has over 380,000 miles on it. By August, 2009 the bike's original engine required a major rebuild after completing 335,590 miles. It was then replaced with a new engine so the Forwood duo could continue travelling.
