I think it's great that they are doing the trip and popularizing 'adventure riding' but I think they should pay tribute to the riders who have done similar (if not the same routes) before them WITHOUT support vehicles and the worlds media etc backing them up. (Silk road rider couple spring to mind, cant remember their names but they did it off their own backs on 650gs's).. maybe they mention them in the books? There seems to be a popular misconception that they are the first to ever do anything like this, I meet lots of people who think they are the last two explorers on earth, I tell them to check out Mondo Enduro and similar...

Ho Hum Rant over - looking forward to episode 2!!!

I agree. We were on the road when Long Way Round first came out and got a bit bored with people saying - "Ooh, just like Ewen and Charlie" - nope, nothing like them thanks!! Terra Circa and Mondo Enduro are awesome by the way!!

Yeah digging up an old thread I know but anyone got the torrent for ep6? I can't seem to find it and looks like it was screened a week ago.

only six in the series....reckon the last one should have been longer....
these are the sort of series tv1 should be screening instead of all the other repeats!

Bought the DVD from GPstore, $29.95 and we watched the whole thing in one night. Awesome, well worth the $$.

(and I agree, Eve should have stayed home, poor Charlie

)

Hey, I was just wandering what you are supposed to do with those torrents?

**ceebie13** · 10th December 2007, 13:54

Ha! We did the same thing this last weekend. Bought the DVD and watched it all in two hits.
Agree...excellent VFM. In fact, we thought it was better than Long Way Round.
Yep! Eve came across as a bit of an infiltrator. We too felt sorry for Charley, but good on him for speaking up about how he felt.
Overall an excellent mix of biking and story-telling. It must be difficult dreaming up variations on bike to bike shots or camera vehicle to bike shots.
Ewen's comment about snapping 350 pictures of his bike against 350 different backgrounds was so true.

So...where next? Long Way Up? NZ to London perhaps! I doubt it. I suspect that if they were going to do that, sadly they'd start in Oz and leave out NZ for logistical reasons.
