I know this is bike related but who doesn't have a soft spot for a trusty C90 and likes to hear heroic tales of road trips and retro-bodgery. This lad rode a C90 from Malaysia to the UK. I've spent the last couple of days reading the full blog here c90adventures.co.uk/ but his trip through Iran is a must-watch, as well as the last leg through Europe when he has to rebuild the engine. PMSL at the music video too. |

Awesome, I love a good road trip documentary. I can honestly say there's no better vehicle to travel on with the exception of some modern large scooters - depends on part availability in the country you're traveling through. You really experience the country you're in and unlike a car, you don't have to worry about traffic and it's a hell of a lot more social - as proven in the above video  I traveled around Taiwan on a Signus not just once but twice, they're great in handling and storage, go pretty well and are pretty comfortable too. Not quite as cool as a C90 but cost of a whole new engine? £30  |

C90's are the bomb!  We did a 6 hour endurance race at Mallory park at the begining of November on our Cub. It was awesome! Over 30 teams entered and lots of money was raised for the Air ambulance! Here is a picture of me, my lad and the cub before the race!  |

It's an amazing, breathtaking country and the amount of stuff you do is great. I suggest you go, even if you have to beg/borrow/steal, it's worth every penny 5 times over. M13 also tries really hard to make it a great trip, obviously he depends on it very much so for his income so I can see why. In short: GO |
