Long Way Down DVD

[young1]

Has anyone got this, is it worth watching?

If it is ....... do you mind a Naki boy borrowing it? (I know that is rude but I got to ask!)

[riffer]

I've got it. It's not as good as Long Way Round but still worth the watch.

It's available on bittorrent you cheap bugger.

I was going to buy it, went on amazon.com last night and the write up wasn't the best! Instead I went to a KTM site and spent some money, so now I am broke again!

I am of course happy to reimburse you for postage and if we ever end up in a bar somewhere of course I will buy you a rum or to!

Check your PMs.

Check your PMs.

All done thank you riffer!

My God - there are some cheap bastards here . . . . and I'm one of them.
I've seen it, and rate it as a must watch.

I got it from the local library after I requested they buy it ( for the sake of all those all those other motorcyclists out there).

Several female non-motorcyclist friends have watched all 6 hours of it and enjoyed it.

I can't go the hard-core knockers who slag off the support that Charlie and Ewan had - hey, they've got a commercial thing going and why not - just as Top Gear hooks up heaps of non-car people, so the Long Way guys get a heap of non-motorcyclists watching.
End of the day - wouldn't we be there if only we could ?

it'd be a trip of a life time..

I can honestly say that if my (now) ex wife and I had not watched The Long Way Round there would not be a big orange bike sitting in my garage tonight! I have no problem with Charlie and Ewen at all, and it has all been discussed many many times of various web sites.

I am now looking forward to watching them ride down through Africa, and who knows in the near future I may be getting on a plane with my riding gear packed in my bag ready to do my own big adventure, if not on my own bike, maybe a hire bike!

And to show that I am not too much of a cheap bugger lol, I have the anniversary edition "On Any Sunday" on video and am happy to lend it out.

Hey Young 1 I would love to borrow on any sunday & will swap you with either Faster (gp racing) & or Dust to glory (Baja 1000 - by Dana brown very cool)

You may want to try Jatz as he lent me Road to Dakar - Charley boorman again, to watch. It was excellent & now for some reason I want to get into sand dunes... I wonder if I could get across farewell spit....

I agree that if you go past all the staunch slaggers Ewan & Charley do more for motorcycles than any other people on TV (apart from the Teutils of course)

Cool I would love to see Dust to Glory thank you. I have PMed you with my address, please give me yours. I have seen Road to Dakar, that was good too, I never thought Charlie would make it though!

Wouldn't it make a cool win-a-wish prize to get to do the dakar all expenses paid.

I have done a few multisports races, coast to coast etc, along with a few enduro's in my younger (PE400) days. I can think of better prizes to win than that! Maybe a supported ride down thru South America etc!

What year CTC. I did 2000, 2001,2002 longest day. Would still prefer a ride thru Africa than that.

I still do a bit of training - last night I put the GB400 on the wind trainer in the garage. good workout but had to stop when I got sleepy - couldn't see the mileage I'd covered cos of the smoke

I did the C to C in 99 and 01 (or 02 can't remember!) along with many other races like that.

Yep I still have the wind trainer in the the garage - never thought of putting the m bike on there ha ha!
