Ahoyhoy,
I'm Dr Chris 'Tigger' Targett. Today I set off on my 5 month, 20,000 mile, solo and unsupported circumnavigation of South America. All of this is to try and raise as much money as possible for MAGPAS emergency medic service and Riders for health.
I admit it here I am a tad nervous but mostly excited.
I fly out to Buenos Aires to catch up with my motorcycle, Sir Humphrey Bikelby, who arrived on 28/01/12.
I'll be updating this blog every 2 or 3 days (or so I plan) so do check back to follow the adventure. You can get up to speed with loads more info at the trip's website www.tiggerstravels.org
