  • Henry Crew is set to become a Guinness World Record holder after becoming the youngest person to circumnavigate the globe by riding unsupported on a motorcycle. The 23-year-old collected a Desert Sled up from Ducati UK's Silverstone base in March 2018, before officially setting off London's Bike Shed in his bid to enter the record books, whilst raising funds for men's health charity Movember.

    This is what motorcycles are all about. Brings to mind a Tolkien quote...
    “It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to.”
    Well done Henry and well bravo Ducati for helping to make it happen. Would you like to sponsor me? I could break the record for most average middle-aged Dad ever to circumnavigate Australia and NZ (doubt I'd manage round the world). Full disclosure: I have zero followers and would influence absolutely no one.

    The "desert sled" actually made me consider buying a bike for the first time. Made my researches, but what's stopping me from buying one at the moment, is the bloody price!

      The desert sled deff made it easier to choose a bike. Used is probable where to go but their really not terrible new either compared to other new adventure bikes.

    I bought a brand new 2022 Ducati Desert Sled in July and I love it! Videos like this say a lot about the quality of the bike. Yes Ducati cost a lot to maintain but not as much more as people think. So far my bike has been rock solid in every way!
