The Long Way Round

[Markbnj]

Anyone else watch this documentary/reality series with Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman traveling around the world on motorcycles?

Pretty good so far. Some amazing scenery and characters. Almost painful watching them struggle through Mongolia with those monstrous BMW 1150 GS bikes, though. Way too heavy for the terrain.

There's another involving a trip through Africa.

I watched both Long Way Round and Long Way Down recently and enjoyed them a lot. Long Way Down was through Africa, not South America. I hope they make another one, it's been a few years now.

Watched them both, really good television Ewan and Charlie seem like genuinely nice people.

Yeah, that's the thing, they definitely do. And the interaction with the various people they meet is awesome. The night they stayed at "Igor's" mansion in the Ukraine, drinking vodka and all the guys were carrying AK's, pretty wild.

Definitely awesome shows! I wish I had the time to go and do that! Maybe someday!
