Φαντάζομαι πως οι περισσότεροι διαφημιστές θέλουν να φανταζόμαστε σαν "παγκόσμια εργαλεία" τα μεγάλα ον-οφ. Να που ένας Ελβετός παίρνει ένα "άκυρο" μηχανάκι τύπου κρούζερ και το πάει μιά βόλτα στον πλανήτη, σπάζοντας και το ρεκόρ για την διάσχιση του.

Grizzly covered roughly 47,390 miles in 72 riding days and 13 hours by the time he reached a celebration in his honor at Volusia Motorsports in New Smyrna Beach, Florida, on July 10. The previous record for such a ride was 120 days and 2 hours, and included time-stops for transfers. Grizzly’s overall time without time-stops was 119 days and 21 hours.
Grizzly rode away from Daytona International Speedway on March 12, flanked by hundreds of owners of Victory motorcycles who joined him to ride one lap of the Daytona 200 road course and then escorted him out of town for the first part of his journey.
From Daytona Beach, Florida, he traveled 3,971 miles in six days and 14 hours to complete the first leg of the ride in Panama City, Panama. He then continued traveling south 6,269 miles for nine days and 23 hours to reach Ushuaia, Argentina, at the tip of South America. From there, he returned 2,088 miles to Santiago, Chile, loaded his bike onto a plane and transferred to Australia, where he spent six days and five hours riding 4,604 miles west across the continent from Sydney to Perth.
From Perth, Grizzly and his Victory were flown to Cape Town, South Africa, and awaited clearance through customs. Thereafter, he took 13 days and 23 hours for a 7,509-mile journey from Cape Town to Cairo, Egypt, and a ferry to take him across the Mediterranean to Tarragona, Spain. From there, he rode 5,447 miles in six days and 23 hours from northern Spain to Gibraltar to North Cape (Nordkapp) Norway.
Grizzly then turned his wheel east, riding through St. Petersburg, Moscow, Irkutsk and Vladivostok during an 11-day, 7-hour, 7,280-mile journey across Russia, a 4-hour and 249-mile tour through South Korea, and a 5-day, 11-hour and 2,989-mile ride through Thailand and Malaysia.
From Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, Grizzly loaded his bike onto a plane and traveled to Anchorage, Alaska, before resuming his ride in a 9-day, 1-hour and 6,984-mile zig-zag tour across North America through Edmonton, Winnipeg, Toronto, Chicago and Santa Monica, California to his finish in Daytona Beach.
