Two-time Dakar Rally champion Sam Sunderland will attempt to break the round-the-world motorcycle record in September, riding a Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer. The current record of 19 days, 8 hours and 25 minutes was set in 2002, and his route covers roughly 18,000 miles across five continents at a pace of over 1,050 miles a day.

Sunderland's a two-time Dakar winner, so obviously tarmac speed talk isn't my department, but the idea of circling the whole planet on an adventure bike gets my blood up. Riding a mostly stock Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer for something like this is properly hardcore. Still, over 1,050 miles a day, mud or no mud, that's brutal.

Over 1050 miles a day means basically zero rest, that math is brutal
