Long Way Round (2004)

Post by tbln930 »

If you have not see this on adventure touring it is very well worth the time. It is on Netflix streaming.

Actors Ewan McGregor (The Island, Star Wars, Black Hawk Down, etc.) and Charley Boorman (Deliverance) travel around the world (15,000 miles) on adventure touring bikes on nearly every continent. It is a documentary series and the scenic footage is simply amazing and some of it frightening. Both are hard-core motorcycle fanatics. They decided to hire a professional cameraman who went with and filmed everything in HD. Then it was edited professionally.
