Their route went eastward from Sligo, Ireland to St. John's, Newfoundland, via Norway, Moscow, Siberia, Tokyo and Toronto, Canada. During the Newbound's world record challenge they crossed 54 countries. They rode their BMW F650GS and R1150GS bikes above the Arctic Circle three times. They visited every state and province in United States and Canada, which included crossing the North American continent five times.In October 2005 Guinness World Records formally acknowledged that the Newbounds had not only broken the existing world record, but extended it by almost 84,000 km (52,200 mi) taking the new world record to 183,000 km (113,700 mi).Neither had any experience of motorcycle mechanics, and Monika had never undertaken a long distance trip before.
