On Horizonsunlimited, people are ALWAYS asking for advice on where to buy a used bike, or the best way to ship one over, in order to go on an adventure ride. This would offer one a far better deal than renting a bike (assuming one wanted to spend months riding vs. a few days), shipping one's own bike over and back again, or buying a used bike and making sure it is ready for such a long ride. Like what 'Wolftrax' is calling his trip--a 'ride and dump.' If worse comes to worse, just give it to someone!
