Back On Home Soil!

Mark arrived back in Scotland on Tuesday with his faithful bike tightly packed up in a box. He was greeted at Edinburgh Airport by family, friends, press and followers of his successful nine-month journey from Alaska to Argentina.

After travelling 13,080-miles along the American Cordillera, Mark said he 'would probably sleep for about a fortnight now, nine months of pushing it takes it out of you.'

Mark added 'that it was good to be back and was blown away by the way the online world got involved. There were tough moments and lonely moments but I never felt alone in terms of support.'
