This looks like an interesting show on the US version of Bravo TV: The
Long Way Round:

Here's the description off the Bravo web site linked below -

Actors and friends Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman star in and
co-produce this new Bravo series chronicling their four-month
transcontinental journey by motorcycle.

Through six one-hour episodes, Long Way Round shows the actors in a
way the audience has never seen them before, utterly left to their own
devices and foregoing their more comfortable lifestyle. Their journey
takes them over 20,000 miles, circumnavigating the longest continuous
landmass on earth through the Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, China,
Siberia, Alaska and Canada before arriving in the Untied States.

Fortunately I was able to tape the first episode tonight.

Definitely looks good so far. The first episode was all about getting
the trip setup, but was still pretty interesting. The rest should be
a blast to watch...talk about a fun trip! Ok, maybe fun isn't the
right word, perhaps challenging is more accurate.

I really want to see this as it's been well discussed on
uk.rec.motorcycles. Is it on any of the Canadian stations?

Yes I have them also, I watched them tonight... Great show. To bad KTM
pulled out, but I thought the BMW's would be the better pick anyway. Looks
like a tough journey. Keep updating on when you find the rest of the series.
Thanks
