Around the world by motorbike in 1932

Hoje em dia dar a volta ao mundo em moto é considerada uma aventura, agora imagine-se em 1932, sem infraestruturas, sem telefones e com partes do mapa ainda marcadas como "não percorridas", "desconhecido".

Épico!

In 1932, 23-year-old Robert Fulton Jnr set off on a 40,000-mile solo motorcyle trek from London to Japan. His incredible footage of the journey is one of a selection of films being show at The Adventure Travel Film Festival (17-20 Aug). It captures a Middle East still under British rule, India under the Raj and pre-communist China, all before the days of telephones, proper infrastructure or mass tourism – and when some parts of his map were still marked 'unsurveyed, unknown'
