ROUND-THE-WORLD ROTAX

Would you send a kid out on a crate like that? Well, first off, Simon Milward, a 37-year-old Brit, is no kid. He'd also tell you that his mount, a one-oft Rotax-powered adventure-tourer, is the perfect hike for the task at hand-that being to ride around the globe raising awareness and money for "Health For All," a program that uses motorcycles to provide primary healthcare services to rural Asia. General Secretary for the Federation of European Motorcyclists Association from 1992-97 fighting such things as mandatory airbags and leg p!0teCtON, "Seven years with politicians and bureaucrats is enough to drive anyone around the world." Cur rently in the U.S., he's covered 75,000 miles through 29 countries and raised $60,000 toward his goal of $100,000. To make a donation or book one of his money-raising slide shows for your shop, club or organization, track Milward down at simon@miilennium-ridecom or jingle him on the ol' satellite phone at 408/386-8690. -David Edwards
