Long Way Down Movie Premiere in Long Beach, July 31st

[skuehl]

I am going. Anyone else going. Anyone going from San Bernardino County want to meet at my house and leave from here, (Chino Hills). Here is the information from the email I received.

A must-see motorcycle movie premiere!

Join Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman as they embark on a 15,000-mile motorcycle ride through 20 countries, from Scotland to South Africa, in the debut of "Long Way Down."

Well, i'll be daggoned... haven't heard of the down movie as of yet.

Great movie. I saw Fairlaner's copy several months ago, then we got our own copy. The hardback book came out this week too.

I recommend the movie to anyone with an interest in motorcycles. It's well worth seeing.

This months AMA Magazine has a featured article on these two and their motorcycle travels.

The article is rather short, though.

All I'll say is that someone shoulda stayed home. Otherwise, a pretty good watch.

Is this new movie with the same two brokeback riders that were in the first one??
If so, I'll be stayin' home. That first one was more drama, cryin' and whinin' than a 8 year old girls slumber party.

the meltdown when KTM wouldn't give them free bikes.

the falling over 10feet into the ride on pavement

the pretending there wasn't a support vehicle around for pretty much the whole thing. (I like how they miraculously go from TCK80's to Anakees in one scene without ever stopping. The certainly weren't packin' that new rubber with them. (and in this instance when I say rubber I'm referring to tires) No crime in a support vehicle, but they sure wanted us to believe it was just them out there.

OH, and that family reunion ....jeezers as if our own aren't bad enough they drag us into theirs.

Please tell me this new one is not as ghey. :huh:

Then maybe it's time to host another party and show it to the rest of us who can't make this one.

We can collect the donations and send to charity.

 

[Fairlaner]

After what happened last week i dont think that will happen for a while.
