Hello South Africa from Montana. I'm watching "Long Way Round" with Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boreman right now, and I saw your post. I'm sure you've probably seen it, but if not, it's a must! Also "Long way Round". Both great DVD's about traveling the world on a motorcycle. Let's think about making a switch next summer. You come here and ride the great Rockies, BC, and Sturgis, and I'll go to South Africa. How's that sound?

Wow man that sounds awesome. I've actually been looking at travel packages to head up there. Also, Sturgis is a must. "Long way Down" is awesome and they end up in Cape Town, funny enough they on their route they would've passed my house.
