My name is Paul Pelland and in 2012 I recalculated my lifes roadby deciding toshare and chronicle my lifes journey; the difficult challenges I have faced and how I overcame them, my life-long passion of long distance motorcycling, and for the first time, openly discussing and dealing with everyday challenges brought on by having the often disabling diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis.
My mission is to document riding one million miles with MS,for MS.My hope is that by sharing my story I will inspire others who are facing tough challenges in life to never stop chasing their passions and dreams, while also raising awareness and funds as I continue Chasing The Cure.
My journey involvestraveling by motorcycle for as long as I possibly can, speaking at various events, conferences, rallies and support group meetings across the country. We all struggle to navigate around the potholes of life, and the story I share can be tailored for any audience. My progress is posted across my social media channels in real time. Inthe first eight years I have been able to ride 450,000 miles, raise $200,000 for charity, set three world records and share my story at over 250 events across the United States!

Since 2013, I havebeen writing a column for ABILITY Magazineand my road tales and product reviews have been published in META Magazine, Motorcyclist, Iron Butt Magazine, Motorcyclists Post, ADV Moto and many others.My million mile journey has been featured on television, in newspapers, and dozens of podcasts as well. My first Yamaha Super Tenere CURECHASER was retired after 172,000 miles and now is on display at Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum in Birmingham Alabama. In 2018 Yamaha Motors USA officially announced their support of my journey and donated a Star Venture luxury touring motorcycle, and in 2020, they donated a Tenere 700 which I am currently trying to wear out!

With your help, I have raised over $200,000 for MS Charities. In 2018,my fundraising efforts and events began supporting MS Views and News. Partnering with MSVN, we deliver unbiased MS educational programs and services to patients and their families living in remote and rural areas of the country where they are needed most. All donations made in recognition of my journey will be used by MSVN toimprove the lives of people in the MS community by delivering education and inspiration where it is needed most.
There are MILLIONS of miles of roads on this earth, each and every one of them intersected with crossroads representing different paths, and therefore not all of us are supposed to take the fastest route. Slow down, recalculate, detour, wander or shift, because a round-about can still get you to your goal,and believe me, sometimes that ride, that journey, that side trip adventure, will becomemuch moreimportantthan your destination.
It was great meeting you at the IMS show in Carlisle PA. The famous man who rode a Ural in the Iron Butt Rally. Keep going strong for MS Paul, you took a beating on that chopper but you lived to tell the story.
ReplyNice to see you on a chopper. is a Harley next?
ReplyHello Paul,
My husband is a fan of yours and someone you have taken time to chat with at MOMs. Georg (no E at the end) is who I just ordered a calendar for. (7:05 pm, Nov 14, 2020)
Best wishes.

Hi Paul,
Can you tell me what Aerostich pants you use. Looking for summer pants that will help isolate me from the Venture heat.
And if I might ask, do you wear slacks or shorts under them.
Im thinking about riding up to Aerostich to touch and feel, try on.
Thanks,
Jack Hubbard

Hello Paul, Carl Hoobler here. I spoke with you on 5 Jan at the Dallas motorcycle show. Was good to chat with you. Have thought about our visit and Im thinking maybe I should do what you are doing but with a different agenda, that being not to be afraid to ride with diabetes. I have had a light go off in my head since our visit that weekend. What do you think of my idea? I know it takes a lot to get going as you have done but it is possible. Would give me good cause to get out and ride and not be afraid of confronting that disease that is holding me back from doing what I love to do most.
You are doing good work and bringing attention to something that many riders Im sure had thought about themselves suffering from the same situation you have dealt with and overcome.
You have awesome willpower and perseverance and that is a quality that not everyone can say they have.
Again, I appreciate you taking time to chat with me. God speed and be safe on the road doing what you love to do.
Was nice talking to you the other night in Greenville South Carolina at the shuckin shack. Safe travels Paul. God bless you on your mission to 1,000,000 miles

ReplyPaul, Thank you for what you do for the so many people you come across riding across the USA! We saw you last night at the MSVN Benefit affair and cried from your story! You are another niracle worker! God Bless you!
Replyhi there my name is stevethe breeze manchester,s million mile courier in 1994 i completed 1 million miles and was featured in the motorcycle news as marathon man in a million now cleared 2million
I have been riding about 50 years and lifetime miles around 450,ooo give or take a few. This might be my 3rd year with MS5000 and a Top Ten finish last year. Hope to bring more awareness to MS and enjoy a late season of riding.

This Guy Named Paul has so much to install from coast to coast he brings his message and we applaud him Go Paul Go
ReplyFantastic approach to turning your personal challenge into very positive resources for others. I just posted a congrats to your 2001 IBR article when I was redirected here and learned of your lifes work. I am thrilled to find out that you are still riding and boy howdy you are riding! I take inspiration from your actions and writings. Ive been dealing with severe spinal cord problems for 55 plus years. For decades my mystery ailment was treated as if I had MS. It wasnt until my vision, breathing and heart were shutting down that the doctors came upon the true cause of my problems. Turns out I do not have MS but I do share many symptoms and treatment programs as if I did. So with that vague understanding of what you face day in and day out I just have to tell you how uplifting and inspirational your story and the work you do is to me. I have plans to help others with the lessons Ive learned by living with my medical condition for so many years. Until now I wasnt sure how to go about it or what might be the best way. You have given me a whole new perspective and a second wind. Thank you so much and once again, congratulations!
ReplySaw your bike at Barbers I was telling everyone standing around about your story Hope it raises awareness and brings in more donations.
ReplyPaul,
Great to meet you in Cleveland yesterday. Truly inspiring message and goals. One person CAN make a difference! Keep rolling and we will see you out on the road.
Paul,
Great to meet you tonight at Fredericksburg BMW and learn about your mission. What a great and inspired/inspiring idea! I cant wait to spread the word, proudly wearing your wearable business card and looking forward to someone asking what its all about! Ride safe and Godspeed!
ReplyYour story is really inspiring Paul. Hope you all the best in life. May one day we will meet on the road!
Regards,
Jackson
ReplyThanks Paul for your talk tonight. Very inspiring!
ReplyPaul, thank you for the Heads up on Rocky Mayer seats. We hooked up and i just got my seat back. Wife Loves it. She could only ride 45-50 miles , we rode about 170 on Saturday , she said she felt like she only rode 35 mile on bike , quite a improvement ! I will get her up to 200, 250 soon as we used to ride alot years ago. Again thank you ! Rocky contacted me and i am on Disability so money was hard to come by but well worth it.
ReplyYour story is truly inspiring Paul. Stories like this make it much easier for those of us going through a similar experience. Keep up the great work and continue inspiring others.
I really loved this quote It’s time we tell the world riding motorcycles is good for the mind, body and soul.
I can honestly say, when Im riding, nothing else in the world matters.
I so enjoy reading your posts, Paul. You crack me up
