The Man Who Cycled the Americas.

Record-breaking cyclist Mark Beaumont returns to the saddle for another journey, this time travelling from Alaska to Ushuaia in southern Argentina. Setting off from Anchorage, he begins his trek by tackling the heights of Mt McKinley. After a hard slog down some of America's long gravel roads he spends time as a cowboy in Montana, then races on to California's White Mountains, where he catches a glimpse of Mexico's border with the United States

I'll join you.

I watched this. But how come he has a film crew with him? Are they cycling to? I had a mate who went to cycle round Brazil. Planned to go for 3 months came back after a week. So bloody dangerous on a bike on the their roads. perhaps he should have taken a film crew to

I think he has just a hand held camera most of the time..............there's a lot of shots with him obviously holding it at arms length.
