I just read this book and I really dug it. It is by Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman. They rode their BMW motorcycles from John 'O' Groates in Scotland to the Capetown in South Africa. I guess they are doing a T.V. show for this one like they did when they road around the worl a few years ago, but I don't have a T.V. so the book is good enough. I dream constantly about doing a trip like this.
