Yes it was mentioned in one of the generic threads previously. The 4 episodes are good, I liked the first 2 episodes better than the last 2.

It's a pretty good Doc. I've seen some of Erik's other ride videos and they are well done. He's pretty good with setting up shots and drone footage. I liked the fact that it was 2 guys by themselves and not a group with a full support team.

I just searched for it on Amazon Prime, came straight up. And it’s free now for Prime customers . Perhaps not available in Canada.

Binge watched this at the weekend and really enjoyed it. Lots of Super Tenere shots and the bit that no-one outside of this forum will bother to notice is just how reliable the bikes were. Puncture? Can happen to anyone. Rock in the oil filter? Well...erm...OK it's in a dodgy place on the engine, but other than that it was a solid bit of PR that Yamaha should jump on as it is a real world example of two regular showroom bikes that walked the walk without a complaint.
Yes....if he hit the rock hit hard enough to bend the skid plate, that is a pretty good impact...something has to give.
I was very impressed with Erik's ability fix/seal the oil filter!
I rode into Mexico with 3 others and had a very similar problem, but we could not get the filter to seal, and the guy didn't bring a spare, it ended his trip.

I saw the first episode last night. It's a pretty well done travel documentary w/ motorbike and S10 content. Very impressed with what they were able to do as they went along, maintaining a focus on production despite challenges. Looking forward to the remaining episodes.

I dunno. I like to see "real world" 40 person backup teams, in Land Rovers, in-the-field replacement of everything complete with airdrops of new bikes every 50 kilometers. I'm just in awe of the organisational side of it all... The "Long Delay Down"

Lots of swearing and cussing- definitely not a US American production
