I'm a big fan of the long way round, this ad kinda puts me off the second instalment with all the public school boy bouncing around tomfoolery.

I hope this was the producers bad idea of an advert and the series is a bit better!

[Anytingnottaken]

Can't wait to watch this, well done guys.

[glynshady]

[impies]

I am going to ride around the world on on a Honda C50 with a ten quid tent from Asda.

I might take some pictures from my trip.

[ksrtw]

Well done guys - you're fantastic. I did a similar trip in 2005 but the easy way in a truck. I went through that same border crossing from Namibia to South Africa as well so lots of memories have come flooding back! Can't wait for the TV series. KSrtw com

[Rgeezah]

going to tanzania to build a coffee plantation with my dad soon. cant fucking wait.

[eenymeeny123]

You know, I was going to post in defence of Manchester, but arguing online is like the special olympics - even if you win, you're retarded.

[justbeingcurious]

what's with the manchester bashing?

you can't tell what a city is really like until you've lived there, and infact it is only small pockets of the city that bring it down, and by the way, this is Britain your talking about, it rains everywhere!

anyway, can't wait until this series is back on, so enjoyed the first, i've been reading the book that they released to accompany the series, it just proves what you can do when you really put your mind to it.

[mrstilney]

excuse me professorrobright but Manchester is a great city with modern buildings, great culture and is the best city for shopping in the north of England.

[MrsDeppMcGregorBloom]

Yeah they made it!lovin the south african accent ewan does!!!!

[CALMANY35]

long way round was mint i cant wait to see all of this good work lads 5 stars and if ewan sees this comment im a big fan

[mynewcat]

If it inspires more people to get bikes and enjoy themselves a little more then it's a good thing.

[sidhaguru]

well done lads

[hoggster3]

If this series is as good as long way round,it will be awesome,some of the best tv in years,a real emotional rollercoaster.A great team effort,nice one.

[jeremyleys]

Is the date on the passport for RSA: 1st August 2007 or 8th January 2007 ???

Have they left from Shepherd's Bush as well this time ?

[atheosmachina]

In South Africa we use the DD/MM/YY or YY/MM/DD (less common) format, so the passport date is 2007/August/01

[TheFreakz]

I LOVE EWAN!!!!!

HES WKD!

nice dance!

[wwwNooBcom]

Lmao @ johnnieCamaro, do the dakar teams bikes only have the rider and bike, at there skill level it would have been impossible to do what they did without a suport team, how are they going to cross mongola with just the fuel in there tanks, tell you what, u go "try" to go round the world with just your equipment and bike and lets see how far u get

[sunshinefun68]

Love Vioolsdrif man, Orange River is the best.

[martytomko89]

[elmodiddly]

Get a fucking life you loser. So what if they had support crew? SO WHAT?

They still did the ride! Moron.

[JoshuaJ85]

I was listening to these guys most Thursday's on Radio 1 on the way to work. I look forward to the series. Both top down to earth guys.

[JohnnieCamaro]

Check out the support crew on the BBC website!
