Terra Circa (2003)

Terra Circa was the first motorbike expedition to cross the challenging Zilov Gap, organized by Dave Greenhough, brother of a Mondo Enduro team member. The journey began in London, traversing Europe, western Russia, and Siberia to reach Vladivostok. From there, the team traveled to Japan and returned to Europe, crossing the United States. The seven-month trip covered 20,000 miles with a team including Dave Greenhough (organizer), Austin Vince, Charlie Benner, Gerald Vince, Joe MacManus (until Turkey), and Matt Hill (until Turkey and then from Russia). Dave Greenhough had to leave early due to a knee injury, and Matt Hill rejoined the expedition to finish the journey with the others. Like its predecessor, Terra Circa is a low-budget adventure, relying on rough camping and popular among adventure motorcyclists.
