We went from London to New York by going east. And I think the first one was back in 2004. I think, I don't know how many people know me for that, but I suppose people probably know me a little bit more for Long Way Round and Long Way Down that I did with Ewan McGregor over the years. Take us through what was Long Way Up and how it all come about. I thought it would be a bit depressing to watch a travel show during lockdown, but it was actually really refreshing to be reminded of the big wide world out there. he even hints at plans for his and Ewan's next big adventure.Įnjoy the interview and apologies in advance for coming across as an absolute fan boy but the guy is a legend! I was lucky enough to catch up with Charley for a chat about the trip and some of the incredible experiences they had a long the way.Ĭharley also takes us through his early days in acting, some of his most horrific crashes (where he really put Quad Lock to the test), the future of motorbikes and. The difference with Long Way Up, other than the route, to the Long Way Round or Long Way Down is that Charley and Ewan rode 13,000 miles on the Harley Davidson Livewires, Harley Davidson's first electric vehicle.įor those that have watched the show, you'll notice that both Charley and Ewan utilise the Quad Lock Motorcycle Mount for their navigation. all on one of their greatest loves, motorbikes. His Long Way series alone has taken him and his good mate Ewan McGregor from London to New York, Scotland to Cape Town and most recently, Ushuaia to Los Angeles. Charley Boorman has led an incredible life.
