Ted Simon is a British journalist and writer. In 1973 he left on his first motorcycle trip around the world on a Triumph Tiger 100, and in 2001 he left on his second motorcycle trip around the world on a BMW R80GS. He published Jupiter’s Travels (1979) about his first circumnavigation of the globe and Dreaming of Jupiter (2007) after his second. The Enlightened Dirtbags read both books and in this episode talk and compare Simon’s motorcycle trips. Were their octane ratings accurate?
