Woo hoo!

I love those GSA's!

I loved the Long Way Round. :jumping:

The DVD was fun and their book offered even more insight to what they were thinking and feeling as the trip progressed.

I'm looking forward to watching this adventure as well. Anyone know if they will be blogging daily updates or do we have to wait for the DVD after the trip's completion?

Those guys are lucky.

Thinking the same thing....I want to be a movie star...just to afford such trips.

 

[pwc]

I think it's more effort than luck. but that's just me.

Bingo!

I am sure a little jealous of such trips.

I do not know the man personally, but, it seems like Ewan has sure worked hard to get where is today.

I know I sure can't act, sing, and dance like him.

I do come up with a good line of BS every now and again.....hmmm...could I get paid for BSing?

Thank You...going to Baja again in October.

I need to get one of those big bikes. I might have to go against all my morals and get a loan for one this fall....hmmm...

I do want to go through Copper Canyon one of these days.

The Long Way Round grew on me - at first I thought they whined (The Long Whine Round?) way too much about how hard it was and how long it was taking (they sounded like girls! oops! I'm not supposed to say that )

But I was impressed with their sticking with it, even when they were clearly beyond their abilities. Also loved their humor, and their obvious heartfelt interest and devotion to the UNICEF kids (did you know Ewan and his wife went back to Mongolia and adopted one of the street kids?). Africa should see them focusing on an effort for UNICEF about the children orphans left by the AIDS pandemic.

Looks like they got smart with the bikes - much smaller? Which ones are they? Maybe Ewan won't dump his every day or so this time
Clearly a lot less kit, too, so they learned!

Can't wait to follow it!

 

[DesertRose]

OMG - I just noticed that the bikes are decorated in leopard (Charley) and zebra (Ewan) prints . . . I really think I need a bike like that. Really. It's for my work.
