Too much money?
Sure, they had huge resources at their disposal compared to the rest of us, using the excuse that they didn't have much time, but even so, they had some pretty tough times to deal with. I had a pre-concieved idea that they were a bunch of jessies, but I read the book and watched the DVD, and came away with a grudging respect (mostly 'cause I'll NEVER have that sort of money!!). I think one of the most telling things they said, after wrestling there 280kg+ GS BMWs out of a muddly hole for the tenth time for the day, was to the cameraman who had to ride a Russian two-smoke after his bike died. They said "How come you haven't fallen off at all?"
Sometimes lots of money can be a problem.
