'This one started about half way round America, when we started talking about the next one. After we appeared on the Jonathan Ross show when Long Way Round finished, we went back to our offices and started pulling out maps and talking a bit about Africa. I don't think we necessarily thought the trip would happen, but here we are in John O' Groats!'
'It has been nice to start here, at John O' Groats. Making the effort to come up has been fantastic, well worth it.'
You sent in plenty of messages wishing the guys 'bon voyage'. See these below!

What a journey!
Long Way Round was inspirational and awe-inspiring; I've been looking forward to this journey since Race to Dakar. Can't wait to see the footage of this journey. Good luck and safe riding.
