Princesses of The Adventures.
As my financial standing did not allow to perform a real trip this year in reality I did some few virtual tours:-) in the vastness of the Internet. As a result I have met five beautiful women and I want to share this on my blog. They aren’t only beautiful women they are also realy inspiring, brave and adventurous women. So here they are!
Astrid Neudecker from Germany is a traveler and TV star from German channel DSF where she presents new bike models. Not only presents – she also tests them by putting them into a furrow in long tours to distant areas. She started her motorcycling career at 19 on her boyfriends bike but decided to invest her own shortly. She has found through her trips that her real love is Africa but she has also rode America and Europe up and down.
“… I love riding through remote regions, sleeping under the stars and going to places other people never usually get to visit.”

Julia Sanders from United Kingdom has started her biker adventures as nvigating officer:-) on a passenger pillion of her husbands bike. This mighty duo vanquished two Guiness world records – the fastest travel around the world and the fastest crossing the American continent on a motorcycle. But in common with Astrid, Julia decided to change to her own bike. Julia specially enjoys an interface with different people on her trips.
“The bike is like an ice-breaker. It’s so easy to make contact with people because they are simply fascinated by motorcycles. … As far as I’m concerned there’s no better way to travel.”
Julia Sanders
Lisa Thomas is another English adventurer and another lover of records. She is currently on the way with her husband. Their goal is plain and simple – to cover all seven continents. Yes, no joking! They wished good luck to their bosses and left everything behind. Now they have covered ower 100000 kms and have visited about half a hundred countries (I’m curious if they know it exactly by themselves:-)). Besides it isn’t a simple joyride at all – Lisa and her husband collect money for several charitable projects.
“The tour is enormous test for me both physically and mentally. As far as I am concerned, it is important not just to visit these countries but also to learn to understand the culture and the people.”
Lisa Thomas
Ramona Eichorn from Germany wanted four seconds to engage in 5000 km off road tour from Canada to Mexico – “My life is ongoing adventure and it sounded like exactly the type of thing I like to do. I was in Vancouver anyway so I said yes straight away!” Now she has crossed many of the most remote parts of the world. She has met many different people and has seen a lot of beautiful sceneries in the world.
“Also the people are so friendly too, although this is something that I have experienced every where. People make you feel so welcome and something amazing is that the poorer they are, the more hospitable they are.”
Ramona Eichorn
Benka Pulko from Slovenia changed her life in January 7th, 1997 when she decided to ride around the world by motorcycle. Her motoryclist experience was about 650 kms before this crazy resolving. Benka covered 180062 kilometres through 7 continents, 73 countries and cut two Guiness world records. And now… drum roll… I want you to get on your feet by reading the following – she did it alone!!! Yes, she was the first woman who overcome the longest solo motorcycle ride ever in tboth distance and duration. Benkas book about her adventures became as a source of inspiration for other people (I realy think not only for bikers) to live their dreams. She revealed that she was crazy about motorcycles a long time before her great trip. But it was tight financial for her family to get a bike in a poor communist country (I know this story). After her trip Benka worked on inspirational and humanitarian project “Belive in Yourself & Kickstart the World” (what a name!) aimed to avereness for women’s education. Benka counsels everyone to try to leave the safety, overstep the mark of comfort and live life now rather than later.
“I would advise anyone thinking of giving up their jobs to ride around the world to quit today and live their dreams tomorrow. Seize the moment and do not waste your life. It is like a poison. While you may be thinking of the first change in your life I can’t stop contemplating where my next adventure is going to take me.”
Benka Pulko
These five women passed we a period how to live our dreams. A passion, goal setting and action is all we need to acomplish all of them. Thank you ladies so much!
