Long Way Round

In 2004, a TV mini series was produced that followed Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman on a motorcycle trip around the world. The documentary starts months before they leave and shows all the struggles of planning a trip of this magnitude and then follows them around the world. It’s an amazing story, and if you’ve ever ridden a motorcycle, chances are you’ll thoroughly enjoy this story. Apparently there is a book about this trip as well which I may have to add to my reading list. This show brings back a lot of memories on that little two day trip I took last summer down to Vancouver, WA. I’m super excited to get the Councours 14 next spring and take some longer trips!
