This company offers fancy schmancy biking exhibitions just like long way down and long way round. takes about 4 months for the RWT trip and if you use their bike (you’d have to really as i don’t think a GSXR K7 would make the ROAD OF BONES) then cost is £22,750
I’ve been doing a bunch of research on trips just recently as I’ve decided that after a nicely successful 7 years in London, it is time to pick up the old wanderlust and get back out there again.
Personally, I am more your independent traveller so these types of tours don’t really float my boat (albeit they are probably great to do) but seems there are a few around - even two week jobs so you can fit it in as holidays. Some others include:

As for my own plans, it has been just over 10 years since my 2 years (5 if you include the 3 years working in US) backpacking extravaganza and I have grown weary of grey rain drenched London streets. Next year I shall be doing the following:
10-12 Trackdays plus one or two in Spain between April-September. Then sell the track and road bikes…
Late September, I will be flying to India and pick up a Royal Enfield Bullet (or similar) in New Delhi and spend the next 6 months covering as much as possible from Kerala to Amritsar, Himalayas to Goa and points in between. (A bit like Damien I’anson in Bike magazine did if you remember the articles.)
Late March 09 I will be heading back to UK (Via South Africa) for a brief two week stopover before flying out to Las Vegas to purchase a BMW GS1200 courtesy of these lovely folks http://www.bmwoflasvegas.com/ - check out the prices £7,500 for a GS!!!
The plan is still evolving from here but I am looking to ride the Pan American Highway down to southern Chile with a few diversions on route, then back up to the US, up the west coast to Vancouver I might do this bit from Las Vegas before heading to Central and South America depending on the Logistics. plan on this taking 9-10 months of pretty relaxed travelling with a bit of local living on route.
First part to India pretty much sorted, just organising the second part now. Have booked Spanish classes at nightschool in January and making the necessary enquiries about whether my old North Carolina driving license is still valid (not a problem just easier if it is re insurance and bike purchase). Also doing the necessary visa/carnet style investigations - all part of the fun the planning :w00t:
Budgeting around £30-35k for the trips - maybe less if I do some casual work on route
Anyhow, if anyone has any tips on the travelling (not trackdays - done enough of those 
) components - it is gratefully received. I could perhaps post up a travelog style journal for the site once underway - depending on access (might take the laptop…now there’s a thought)
Sounds like you’ll have an awsome time 
Sorry, I don’t have any advice other than take at least one fresh credit card with a massive credit limit!
