Ernesto 'Che' Guevara wrote The Motorcycle Diaries based on his motorized adventure traveling through South America on the back of a sputtering single cylinder 1939 Norton 500cc dubbed La Poderosa ("The Mighty One").
Sure, Che wrote a darn good book about the experience - but that was long before the days of GoPro cameras. So check out this GoPro video that captures a motorcycle journey through South America on a vintage 1987 Honda Transalp XL600V. This motorcycle journey starts in Uruguay and extends on to Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, and, finally, concluding in Colombia.
“Old God sure was in a good mood when he made this place.”

As a general world consensus and likely to the dismay of many true Alaskans, three words can generally be used to describe any adventure in Alaska – Into the Wild. Regardless of where your inner adventure junkie takes you, it is likely that you will find beauty in the vast tundra, awe-inspiring glaciers, remote mountain hideaways and brisk ocean waters that define Alaska. National parks span across this “land of the midnight sun”- from Denali National Park in the south-central region to Glacier Bay National Park in the far south and reaching up to the high northern areas where you’ll find the nearly untouched Gates of the Arctic National Park. The opportunities to seek adventure at any level are endless.
