Not sure if this link has been put up anywhere else: Charley Boorman Live Tour Charley is on tour at a venue near (unless you live in London...) you soon

"All of this is being pulled together with one of the few people who’d dare to ask those ‘awkward’ questions, Billy Biketruck. Billy will be your host for the show - interviewing Charley and Simon and getting to the nitty gritty. Be shocked at the questions - and be doubly shocked at some of the answers!!!"

So it won't be scripted at all. Wonder if they'll have teleprompters? It would appear that there was no slot for him at Ripley in June.

Hey Dazzer:He's in Bradford on 18th March. Fancy going? A bargain at 21 quid.

Hang on. Following is a reply by me to a comment by someone on advrider ( Ewan McGregor and Charley Boormans email - Page 2 - ADVrider ) that E and C were deserving of a break, that they are living the dream and some people resent them for being rich and famous:

I only resent Charlie, not Ewan.

Lots of people only dream it. It's not difficult to do a round the world or trans-Africa bike trip. You need time, money and a bit of organisation. I appreciate many of us struggle raising the money and having the time.

Before LWR, Charlie had lots of time (being an unemployed actor/carpet fitter), his mate Ewan bankrolled the whole trip and they had everything organised for them by a back office crew numbering about 10 (who leeched information from people like Austin Vince and others) in addition to all the logistical support they had on the road.

Then all Charlie can contribute is to complain because Arai (or was it Shoei?) and KTM won't give them free stuff, light his own farts and run into the back of their cameraman when pulling dangerous wheelies for the locals.

So I don't think I'll be going after all.

cheers
Chris
