Man, would I like to do this... But, maybe I would drive my 83 Dodge Good Times Van. It has a Bed in it... And I'd Pull my 76 Chevy Blazer 4x4 and 599cc or so, Trail- Street Dirt Bike Behind, for all that Outdoor Fun!:) Oh, what the heck... Lets just take the Motor Home!;)...

On this week's episode of The Downshift, we catch up with Murph, who set off 3 years ago to ride his BMW R 1150 GS Adventure motorcycle around the world. Since Murph lives on his motorcycle and was planning to drive in snow and ice, the bike had to be modified to the extreme. Added was a Mobec Duo-Drive 2wd Sidecar for carrying all of his possessions as well as tons of other custom bits to deal with the freezing cold. With his new kit assembled, Murph decided to spend the winter exploring the Arctic Circle.
