Did anyone watch Long Way Round?

Hiya....did anyone watch this program when it was on....I just got the DVD the other week and it is amazing!]
It is a documentary about Ewan McGregor and his mate Charlie Boorman riding their motorbikes from London to New York going East...
I am really jealous...would love to do something like that.
They are in the middle of doing a second ride going down through Africa called Long Way Down..

You can read about them both here....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Way_Round

I watched the whole series, and thought it was excellent mate. They got into some real scrapes along the way. Looking forward to the Africa adventure now!!!

Yeah some of it looked really hard....I liked the fact that although they are famous actors (well Ewan is) they got properly stuck in and seemd pretty down to earth....some of the scenery in Slovakia. kazachstan and along the road of bones in Russian was brilliant....
