(Triumph \/ Red Bull Content Pool)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Who is Sam Sunderland?<\/h2>\n<p>A British rider and two-time Dakar Rally champion, Sunderland is a brand ambassador for both Red Bull and Triumph Motorcycles. His record in the toughest off-road racing in the world makes him a serious contender for a challenge that combines physical endurance, logistics and long-distance riding skill.<\/p>\n<h2>A record that has stood for 20 years<\/h2>\n<p>The current record belongs to Kevin and Julia Sanders, a British couple who circumnavigated the globe on a motorcycle in 19 days, 8 hours and 25 minutes on a BMW R1150 GS back in 2002. Sunderland wants to beat that time riding a Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer.<\/p>\n<figure style=\"margin: 24px 0; text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto; border-radius: 6px;\" src=\"https:\/\/soymotero.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/sam-sunderland-02_3_11zon.jpg\" alt=\"Sam Sunderland at the Royal Observatory Greenwich next to his Triumph Tiger 1200\"><\/p><figcaption style=\"font-size: 0.9em; color: #666; margin-top: 6px;\">Sunderland, during the challenge presentation in London. (Triumph \/ Red Bull Content Pool)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>The plan: 29,000 km, 15 countries, 13 time zones<\/h2>\n<p>The route starts and ends in London, crossing five continents with up to 16 hours of riding a day in highly variable conditions: cold, rain, heat, humidity and wind, as Sunderland himself admits. Under Guinness World Records rules, only actual riding time counts: the flight or boat legs between continents don&#8217;t count toward the clock.<\/p>\n<h2>The bike: a nearly stock Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer<\/h2>\n<p>Sunderland will ride a nearly production-spec Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer, fitted with Michelin Anakee Road tyres and equipped with recording gear to document the adventure, wrapped in a special livery featuring the Red Bull and Triumph colours. Paul Stroud, Triumph&#8217;s Chief Commercial Officer, sums it up: &#8220;it&#8217;s the ideal bike for such an epic adventure.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure style=\"margin: 24px 0; text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 100%; height: auto; border-radius: 6px;\" src=\"https:\/\/soymotero.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/sam-sunderland-04_4_11zon.jpg\" alt=\"Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer with the special Red Bull livery for Sam Sunderland's round-the-world attempt\"><\/p><figcaption style=\"font-size: 0.9em; color: #666; margin-top: 6px;\">The Triumph Tiger 1200 Rally Explorer with the challenge&#8217;s special livery.

Sunderland has since passed medical checks at the Red Bull Athlete Performance Centre and arrives in good shape, backed by a recent second-place finish at the Red Bull Romaniacs on a Tiger 900 Rally Pro \u2014 proof that the challenge is very much back on.<\/p>\n<h2>Why this matters to us at Gas&amp;Fun<\/h2>\n<p>You don&#8217;t need to circle the globe to live the adventure spirit, but stories like this are a reminder of just how far a well-prepared adventure bike can take you.
