Summary

Rachel Lasham and Ed March’s C90 Adventures Hunkered down in Canmore Alberta Lasham and March ride through the Candian winter. Here’s proof that you don’t need a big motorcycle to have a real adventure. Ed and his trusty Honda C90 have travelled around the world, visiting 36 countries and covering over 70,000 miles. Seven months ago, Ed and Rachel Lasham from England, began a journey from Alaska to Argentina each on their own Honda C90. They don’t just want to make time though, they decided to take a side trip to explore Canada from coast to coast, adding almost 20,000 km to their trip. Although it’s the middle of winter, they aren’t letting that stop them! Ed and Rachel regal us with stories of their adventures, people they meet and challenges they face (perhaps cold weather camping could be one of those…brrrrr!) A couple of fun loving folks, they are creating memories to last a lifetime, both for themselves and everyone they meet.

And what they ended up with was the Honda Super Cub.

The Super Cub was cheap to buy, easy and simple to repair,

0:29.1

and it quickly became popular around the globe.

0:31.6

As a matter of fact, to date, the Honda Supercove

0:34.8

has sold over 87 million units,

0:37.9

and that number has garnered it

the distinction of being the most produced vehicle in the world ever and it's still selling.

So if you don't know what a Honda Super Cub is, well, perhaps you're just a little out of the

loop.

0:51.5

And since then, the Honda Super Cub has been used for everything

0:54.6

imaginable from pizza and mail delivery to daily commuting and weekend trips and

a quick search on the internet will bring you up images of SuperCubs under

impossible loads, loads of bags and chickens

1:05.4

and wood and people and virtually everything you can imagine. It's tiny and unassuming. It could even

1:10.8

be called silly looking, but you can't say it's incapable in fact it's

1:14.8

more than capable for the daily tasks like getting groceries or zipping to

1:18.0

work and back and that's what it was designed for but it's also capable of

1:21.9

something else something that m. Honda didn't plan for, and that's
