Motorcycle Around The World
TeapotOne is the story of Bruce Smart's epic 74,000 miles, 54 countries in 442 days, solo & unsupported motorcycle around the world, to keep a promise.
From 1st October 2012 to 14th June 2014, Bruce Smart rode a Suzuki GSX-R1000 74,000 miles around the world, solo and unsupported, through 54 countries to keep a promise he made his mum before she lost her battle with cancer. There were ups, there were downs, highs and lows, but one aspect shone through, the overwhelming friendship and support shown from almost everybody he met around the world.
From Europe to South East Asia, Russia to Australasia, South America to the USA and Canada, almost everybody he met opened their lives and homes to a complete stranger, and the journey grew and grew.
The entire RTW adventure was caught on film, from issues with motorcycle shipping, to the most dangerous road travelled, this travel blog, or travel vlog, is a documentary you just can't miss.
-----
The 2nd episode of the TeapotOne series covering the first 3 weeks on the road around Europe. Rain, snow, mechanical failures, the best road on earth, even wheelie loving monks, it's all there. Already the fantastic friendly nature of society begins to shine through as stranger after stranger offer their help to any predicament that arises.
It may be early days in the journey, but it's already becoming an adventure.

What a cool experience visiting all of the tracks along the way. But a shame you couldn't get on them for a few laps. Stunning scenery, twisting roads and incredible history all around you and you're on two wheels. What more can you want! I need to get over to Europe on a bike at some stage in my life!

Starting from Canada, I wish to do the same 'around the world'. Thank you again for sharing to all of us and congratulations on such an amazing achievement. Sure your mother would be so proud of you. All the best and safe riding!

Just found your channel Bruce. Going through your world tour videos. If I was wearing a hat, I'd be taking it off right now. Amazing decision, phenomenal achievement, inspirational stuff. Just touring some of these countries alone is an accomplishment but doing the world, wow stunning. I've commuted in and out of Rome a good number of times, fun it isn't. Plus the Italian road surfaces are a tad neglected in parts. Back to the action for me. Thanks again. I might fire a few questions at you once I've concluded your vids if I may. Cheers sir.

7:30 bloody hell that was close 🤨 9:30 i've ben on that train as well in 2016, tho i had to push my old Tiger 995i off of it on the Austrian side because the ECU died. Nice people on the station arranged a hotel for my and the misses and also someone who transported us 80km to the nearest Triumph dealer the next day. Managed to source an ecu off of a Daytona and after spending 850€ we continued our journey. Massive thanks to the folks of Motorrad Klinik 🤘

Very glad i found your videos, i have been rebuilding a k1 gsxr 1000 so i could go 50k+ miles all over north america in a few years. Every single person i know has told me it is idiotic to try. But it has been a dream of mine for a long time to take a bike not ment for touring that was on the edge of death, bring it back to life relying on my own skills and take a year plus trip. I had my doubts about the capabilities of a gsxr off road but you have erased my doubts thank you

+Dj Xiev Mate any bike will go anywhere, it's just two wheels and an engine. Of course there are better suited bikes for different terrains/occasions, but it's the rider that will more often than not fail before the bike. If you want to do it, the bike will make it, just never give up and keep focussed on what you want to achieve. All the best bud 👍
