Just to add to the comments about driving in Russia...
A guy I know who's been travelling there on business since the late eighties told me that essentially there were no worthwhile roads connecting major cities. (I think no motorways, single lane in each direction.)
I don't know how recent his knowledge was, but another car-related anecdote was that a "service station" consists of a tanker parking on a street corner, and a queue of motorists forming to get fuel.

Never thought of Panama but this looks good.

How about driving the Pan-Ameican Highway?
If you don't have time to do the whole thing (around 30,000 miles), just start in Peru and drive down to Patagonia.

Inspired by EO's thread I am now looking for information about long distance bicycle trips in Australia.

Unless you have a pothole detector, that can look though snow....
Honestly, some of them will rip your suspension off and you can't see em when they are filled with snow....
And the coppers will stop you and fine you for something every five minutes...

I went bungee jumping once. They weighed me and explained how the length of the lassy was proportional to yer weight
so they said, 'its a 150 foot drop, so your lassy will be six inces long'
they'd never get me up in a microlite doodab
