| Harley and Rivian prototypes |
Aaron: The middle episodes were the most memorable for me. Argentina, Chile, Bolivia, Peru.
Isaac: The scenery?
Aaron: Huge vistas, yes. South American towns. Local people. All that. Two best friends on a bike trip. Hints of family back stories.
Isaac: But also the technical problems with electric bikes; the backup crew, the photography with helmet cams capturing the riders’ view, Rivian truck shots, drone footage, diary cams at night before sleeping.
Aaron: Not a trip that could have been done or documented without serious sponsorship and vehicle backup. Makes you rethink solo documenting a road trip.

Voice-over
An 11-episode Apple TV+ television series. Thirteen countries in a hundred days. Environmental and charity themes. Travellers encountered many challenges, the story had many unexpected twists and turns, the telling of it had many voices and viewpoints. Complexities of a modern picaresque narrative. Worth a watch.
