"wristies" the best laugh ive had all week
im pritty sure he uses hand held cameras. on his trip round the world he meet up with a bbc camera crew who documented parts of his ride they wernt with him all the way. it explanes in his book.
ive travled most of brazil by car and coach. its the kind of place where you have to blend in and not be a tourist. theres a road that runs the length of the country the BR101 which folows the atlantic costline. its beachs and waterfalls all the way ,

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.

And got some awesome shots with it towards the end of the episode - showing his 'riding mate' (shadow) and assuring us he wasn't going nuts.

There were some obvious long shots, so must have been a crew for a bit, but looks like he is alone most of the time.
Can't see the beeb sending out a crew for 9 months to film one guy on a bike.

I'm enjoying watching this (courtesy of the box). For a moment I think I'd like to do it, then reality hits (bears, kidnapping, etc!). Way too scary for little old me...
