[6] Sanders normally eschews the dual-sport motorcycles traditionally employed for these type of journeys in favour of Yamaha Motor Company's flagship sport bike, the R1.
[7] In 2024 Nick became the first person to circumnavigate the globe by electric bicycle, a feat that was made all the more difficult by the need to source a battery to power the pedal assist on each new continent.

[13][14] Sanders was appointed Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in the 2019 Birthday Honours for services to endurance cycling and motorcycling.
