A 2006 Triumph Bonneville took me around my native country, ensuring great experiences and adventure!

Gear and Parts Sponsors:

Many people ask if I could only take this trip because of sponsors - I had wonderful gear and parts sponsors that made the journey more comfortable - but I did NOT have any financial sponsorship - I did the old school thing of saving for 2 years!

Big Thanks to Gear Sponsors

 - For the Lone Rider review I used a video I created while out on my journey - I think it is clear this would rate a 10 out of 10!  My home away from home… Lone Rider was the perfect tent for this adventure as it is all about the lone rider – inspiration style trip – solo around the US.  (In the last few months of my trip I also road tested the mini-moto tent and would also rate that 10 out of 10 for shorter journeys)

Giant Loop… for providing all the luggage systems, and encouragement- thank you- Siskiyou Panniers Pronghorn Straps, Tillamook Dry Bags, Possibles Pouch, Fandango Tank bag Pro, and the Gear Repair Kit.

Keeping me safe and comfortable on the ride big thanks to 
REV’IT for the Sand Ladies riding gear, Pacific H2O rainsuit, summer and winter glovers, the Cooling vest, wrist flux, neck collar, and summer and winter riding socks…there is no worry that if I go down I will be in safe gear, and while riding in any weather I am ready thanks to REV’IT.

Avon Tyres – “When Danell called us to share her story, we were thrilled to have the opportunity to contribute to her success by providing our proven Roadrider tires for the remainder of her trip,” said Ken Warner, Vice President of Marketing for Avon Motorcycle Tyres North America. “The Avon Roadrider is specially designed with a large contact patch for excellent grip, responsive handling and reliable performance at lean angles – perfect for Danell’s unique needs.”

British Customs for providing a comfortable seat for all the saddle hours – this is definitely a bonus to the standard seat I was going to 20,000+ miles on so many thanks, and the new pipes for better performance.
