ABOUT SHINJI KAZAMA
An adventurer with years of experience, Mr. Shinji Kazama was involved in a race accident during the Paris-Dakar Rally in 2004 which resulted in multiple fractures of bones of the knee and right hip. After many surgical interventions, he remains partially disabled. Unstopped by his physical challenges, Mr Kazama is the first and only person to have reached both the North and South Poles by means of motorcycle. In addition to his globe spanning distance records, Kazama has also set records for the highest peaks ever reached on motorcycle.
In 2007, he embarked on Trans Eurasian Continent Tour (52days/18,000km) by motorcycle, aiming to raise awareness of the importance of bone and joint health and trauma prevention amongst the people he met through the tour.
After the success of the Trans Eurasian Continent Tour as an Ambassador for the Bone and Joint Decade, he went on to succeed in two more expeditions, traversing Africa in 2008 and Australia in 2009. This final trek from the South Pole to the North Pole means Mr Kazama and his team have brought the message of the Bone and Joint Decade to 6 continents.
