Our Favortite hero-Robert Fulton. One Man Caravan.

Robert Fulton’s legendary journey by motorcycle began in 1932 when he set out on an eighteen-month odyssey across Asia and the Mid-East. This is possibly the first, and certainly one of the best accounts of motorcycle adventure travel ever written.

Turkey, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, India, Sumatra, Malaysia, Siam, Indonesia, China, and Japan are challenging destinations even today. But this story took place at the beginning of the 20th century. Only a special brand of adventurer would even consider such a journey—one exactly like Fulton.

His customized bike had an extra large fuel tank, a secret hiding place for his .32 revolver, and enough room in his luggage for a motion-picture camera and 40,000 feet of film.

His wonderful book "One Man Caravan" can be found through White Horse Press.
