Biking in Antarctica!

[Steam]

If you have any interesting pictures of bikes on ice or snow, or links to mad buggers who rode to the pole ( I remember some Japanese guy rode to both poles ), feel free to stick it in this thread.

This site is part of Gareth Morgan's continuing motorcycle adventure, this time in Antarctica. (http://gallery.worldbybike.com/gallery/main.php/v/antarctica/posties_on_ice/)
Those pics were taken in February.
Astounding and awesome.

Antarctica is one of the last relatively unspoilt places on earth, now it seems that anyone with a bunch of cash can go down there and mess around without a second thought for the wildlife and the effect it might have on it.
