» There are some crazy people who travel around the globe either with their two feet or with a bicycle. But Rob Lilwall, former door-to-door salesman and geography teacher, conquered the world in both ways. He's written a short piece on pros and cons about two modes of travel in "Walking v cycling: Which is better for travel?" at http://travel.cnn.com/walking-vs-cycling-470646. The 27-year-old set off on the saddle from Siberia to his home in London in September 2004. It took him about three years to get home on the 56,000km journey that covered four continents. Then he undertook a 5,600km trek he called the "Crazy Walk" last year. In the article, Lilwall tells how it hurts and how he endured the pain during the walk and cycle. You can also catch his updates and job as a TV adventurer, motivational speaker and writer based in Hong Kong in his website http://www.roblilwall.com.
