    Anyone who missed the series first time around might like to know it's
    being repeated at 9pm each night this week on Sky Travel (freeview ch.
    11). Starts 9pm tonight.

    How do you do this? and is it best to wait until it's out of warranty?

  4. I've just started reading the book. Interesting (as in no biking book
    can ever be truly dull) but really not well written at all.

    Have you started counting how often McGreggor mentions he's missing his
    family?

    A short second to "this looks a bit like Scotland", no matter where he
    is at the time.

    Well the poverty stricken bits of residential Russia do bear a striking
    resemblance to some parts of western Scotland that I've seen.

    If you want a 100% authentic account as it happens, you could do worse
    than follow Cynthia's trip on http://groups.yahoo.com/group/cmmRTW/

    She's stuck in tsunami territory at the moment trying to work out which
    way to go as plan A has been well & truly washed away.

  10. It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
    drugs began to take hold. I remember "Preston Kemp"
    Hoyuss. Been catching up with the back issues of her trip.

  11. The bike they were on was at the NEC and still had the family photo
    taped to the inside of the screen.
    They all do that, sir.

    I almost bought it at the book signing event at Park Lane BMW just
    before Christmas (Charley Boorman and his bike were there), but decided
    it would probably just languish in the ever growing pile of "looks
    interesting" books I never read. Perhaps I didn't miss too much.

  13. "6" you only sent me 5 - I've been done ;0)

    Seriously though - soz I didn't get in touch over the Xmas hols, they
    passed quicker than the curry I had. Loads of snow though on Teggs Nose
    which was a laugh.

    Hope you had a good one
