Heres something cool to watch: Back in 04, Ewan McGregor and his pal Charlie Boorman took on the grueling challenge of riding their motorcycles from London, through Europe, Ukraine, Mongolia, Russia, flew over to Alaska, continued riding through Canada, to America via Montana, then finished up in New York. All of it was featured in a 9 episode series called Long Way Round (on Netflix) I guess Ewan and Charlie got bored again because in 07, they decided to do it again, this time riding from Scotland, through Europe, then to Africa, through 11 countries until Cape Town in South Africa. This trip was detailed in a 10 episode series, this time called Long Way Down (also on Netflix.) Both series showcase the sheer madness of trying to take their BMW bikes through unbearable terrain, at the same time showing astonishing beauty offered by the landscape, and the unbelievable generosity of people they met along the way. They show that the world is not so ugly as we think it is.
