Travesía en moto: de sur a norte

I am six episodes in. The scenery...it's hard to believe some of this is filmed on Planet Earth. At times I am gob smacked. The interactions with locals are beautiful. Ewan is the heart and soul of this series and I mean no disrespect to Charlie who is great. The filming is amazing. I've watched the other two series which are also fantastic. Just makes me want to get of the couch and explore. If you don't like it, that's fine, but is it really necessary for people write such hateful and nasty reviews? Why? Just switch off.

I get the feeling that a lot of the 'bad' reviews have a) never seen the other installments and b) are easily bored. I am *loving* this. They're all driving completely new, prototype machines that have never been driven over such terrain or distances before, learning about them as they go. I think it's so cool that HD and Rivira were able to come up with road-worthy prototypes on such short notice.

The scenery is *fantastic*! Otherworldly. I have never seen such gorgeous views, it's great. And it's so awesome to see Ewan and Charley together again!

Complaints about it being 'scripted' are silly - it was filmed on the fly. Complaints about it being 'too green'....? Get a grip.

An excellent show so far (up to ep six), and I cannot wait to see more of the incredible Americas from the back of a bike!

Its quite obvious that the petrol heads who live and breath bikes are once again having a tanty over these two guys adventure. Ultimately that's what the show is, these two great friends adventures around parts of the world less travelled and they happen to love bikes.

On the First trip the haters went after them for the fact they had support cars following, on the second trip they got angry that bmw was supporting them with quick air shipment of spare parts, and now they are just angry at the notion of Electric.

well too bad, its pure jealously that the haters dont get to do anything remotely close to a trip like this. they dont seem to understand that the show isn't just about one thing, its not just the bikes, its not just the adventure and its not just about these two guys. Its the whole package, its the planing, the shenanigans, the route, the bikes and the whole crew.

all the people complaining about charging, what did you expect? nobody has done electric adventure like this before on bikes. that's part of why they did it.

Nobody said throw away ur petrol bikes and go full electric right now, everybody knows its going to take decades to get even a small percentage of the world into electric. Some of the destinations dont even have petrol stations so of course charging would be a problem. Both these guys still have many petrol bikes and won't be giving any of them up, yet you all seem to think thy are eco warriors with a green agenda rather than giving them credit for being pioneers in adventure travel.

I must state that my favorites documentaries in order is LWR and LWD. It's a series that actually impacted my life it ended up with north of 800k miles on generations of R1100 and 1200GSes. Simply put my life would have been different. The same impact as Ted Simon had on Charley and Ewan.

I really wanted to love this season, I've been waiting for it, I needed it!

But once I've watched 9/10 of the episodes it never hooked me it's like food without salt. You watch it but you don't crave it. What's missing is the humans the remoteness the struggle and not the least the roughness in the way it's visualized. I cannot connect to this season. I guess it's become.very "Hollywood" and orchestrated. There's to much technology that's get in way of the journey. And this is not the way Ted Simons intended it with ".. the interruptions makes the journey". It feels here that technology gets in the way of the journey, cultures and people. To many cities and hotels. Finally the inner stress in both Charley and Ewan. They do not feel so excited anymore.

I'm sorry I never write these reviews. But this series is too close to my heart.

The idea of using electric bikes seemed nice in the beginning but it turn out to be a problem and a boring one as they always were trying to fin a charging point. Seems electric bikes are still a long way to go before they become mainstream in motorcycling. Claudio didn't even use one!, he was on a HD sporter I think. The constant searching for a way to charge became really annoying for viewers in my opinion and prevented them from seeing parts of chile and argentina that were "too far" from a charging point. Also the issue with the range was annoying, 140 miles a day is not really much for such a long trip, I imagine how bored they were most of the day waiting for the bikes to charge. The speed was kind of ludicrous too, riding most of the time at 40 miles per hour to preserve charge in the batteries.
