5 out of 5 stars Long Way Round    December 14, 2008
R. Doughty (Midwest, IL USA)
Ewan and Charley have created a Document reflecting Our World today.
On a Trek from England to New York City, the long way, these two amature Motorcycle enthusists travel across Europe, the Soviet Union, and America documenting the quality of life of the people and children on their way. Much geographical and political information as well as a few good laughs. Pg13 as this is an ad-lib, no script documentery with a dash of colorful language here and there. Very educational for older children that do not understand how well we have it in the US of A.
A "Must See" for Motorcyle Travelers and a "Should See" for all that care about the conditions of our world today.

I received this for my birthday and enjoyed every minute of the series! Ewan and Charley ride the ultimate ride that I also want to do. After seeing the Road of Bones in Russia though, I don't know that I'm up to the challenge. If you ride--buy this and watch them experience the ride of a lifetime!

Darryl R. Hedges (Bartlett, IL)
This is a fantastic modern-day adventure story of two close friends who decide to take a trip around the world on their motorcycles. Of course, because one of them is well-known and liked actor Ewan McGregor, this is a high budget, sponsor-laden trip that I'm sure cost somewhere between one and two million dollars to make considering all of the support personnel, film resources and on-the-road support that they were given. But "good for them". They came up with a great idea and found the right people to share in their dreams. Their adventure takes them through 12 countries, beginning in London and ending in New York City, and they travel some 12,000 miles in the process. Along the way they encounter all sorts of obstacles, wonderful people and places, and discover a new sense of strength and accomplishment that neither of them had known before. It's a great story about two great and very likable guys. It's a must have video for any motorcyclist's library, or anyone who dreams of taking a real-life adventure!

To anyone who has any adventure in their soul at all, this is an adventure you don't want to miss. If I had only 1 DVD, this would be it. Three cheers for Ewan and Charley!!!

How refreshing that these guys are actually doing something fun and educational and being really nice to the local people they visit as well.
I think the sequel is coming out soon and it is on the top of our family's xmas list!
