A documentary following a couple of friends who ride their bikes from the northern tip of Norway to Cape Town. They are trying to do it in world record time (something like 100 days). Maybe what makes this enjoyable is the fact that they don't dwell on the trauma of riding so many miles. Instead, they are meeting people, enjoying scenery and encountering the difficulties of bike travel in general. The visuals were striking, particularly Ethiopia and Northern Iran, before either got into desert. Very different scenery than my mental stereotypes expected.
3 stars (out of 5)
