Check out travelvice.com. Start at the beginning, and keep going until you’re bored. If you’re like me and the people I’ve passed this URL on to, you’ll get a long way. Essentially, it’s a guy with a healthy sense of self that has managed to cover some impressive ground in the past couple of years. I’ll skip over the criticisms (of which there may be a number) and give him perhaps the best compliment I could – he’s really quite honest. If you know anyone who is seriously entertaining dreams of going off grid and traveling for a few years, send this URL to them (esp. if they’re a bit idealistic about it).

Howdy MB,
I clicked on a random Technorati link and found myself on this post :)
Thanks for the nod.
Saw you have quite a few entries in the ‘cycling’ section, and thought you might enjoy this link that’s been sitting in my bookmarks, waiting to be written about:
Cycling the World
This information source is amazing for people looking to do some bold cycling in exotic locations
Cheers

Hola, Craig. Thanks for the link – that’s exactly the sort of trip I could spend a few years disappearing into.
And good luck on the compendium – it’s a lot of work into a good idea. I hope it pays off.
