It would seem that this person fails WP:ONEEVENT. Punkmorten (talk) 17:19, 7 February 2009 (UTC

• I Agree with the above. Tarheel95 (Tarheel95)
• Keep. It's more than one event, which by itself is notable anyway. 1) The trip itself is notable. 2) The trip was the subject of a National Geographic Special. 3) The guy was kidnapped, a notable event by a notable terrorist group. 4) A former Hells Angel riding a Kawasaki? What? Notable. Proxy User (talk) 18:38, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. One event, hardly any coverage besides his self-published information. And simply riding through Colombia is NOT notable. tedder (talk) 19:45, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment That's misinformation, Tedder. Haggstad rode through a lot more than just Columbia, and there was even a Geogra[hic special about it. You're being misleading. Proxy User (talk) 01:36, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I thought you were saying it was notable because he rode through Colombia. Perhaps we should take this off the AfD, but what about the trip do you find notable? Riding from the US to Ushuaia? That's very common. tedder (talk) 02:02, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- OK, maybe "misinformation" is too strong, I respectfully retract it. I do think it's a notable thing, and there are some interesting side events as well as some kind of media note. To me, that's "notable", maybe not hugely so but none the less. I think there is enough room at Wikipedia for it, and someone might find it interesting. I respect your opinion, you know more about this sort of thing than I. But it's not important enough to me to think it through more than this. Anyway, it seems the "Delete" opinions will win by a slight margin, so it's almost a moot point. Proxy User (talk) 05:33, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
