Jonathan Gibson

“The planned route from Sydney to London. January 2014 until whenever”. And at last his journey has come to an end, and we know that ’whenever’ is July 19, 2015. Jonathan travelled solo for a year and a half on his 1969 Royal Enfield Bullet starting out in Sydney and ending at the Ace Cafe in London. 

Last December, we aired an interview with Jonathan in Mumbai, India, when he shared his adventures with us till that point. Now, Jonathan tells us the rest of his story from London, UK as he gets ready to pack it all up and ship his bike and himself back to Australia, home to share his tales with family and friends at last. Congratulations, Jonathan at reaching your goal and completing your journey!
