How long does it usually take to download from that site? It's not something that I've come across before.

Whatever MAX download rate you download at.
It's a direct download.That's if, you've got an account of course. Free I'm not sure, I don't think there is a limit to how fast you can download, but you can only download one file once every 30 minutes I think.
Thanks for the link RhysPo

Yeah, thanks for this RhysPo.
It's only taking around 5-10 mins per half an episode, which I can deal with seeing as it's free and that's much quicker than previous downloads have been.

Have you ever done anything even remotely close to what he has done and achieved? I know that after a days full ride I'll have a bit of a moan. Most people do. Lets face it - the British love to moan. At least he's moaning about something worthy.

Still, all he does is moan and it makes boring TV and a character it's hard to enjoy watching.

is it for charity?
-
well yes indeed london to bordeaux in 5 days
london to denmark
london to paris
london to liege
london to dunwich and 1/2 way back

Spot on!
people don't want to see you bitch and winge when you are THAT fortunate!
-
There is nothing wrong with moaning. It's how you do it. I personally am a first class moaner...

Anecdotes - It's all about the anecdotes - they are almost a passage of rites to good quality winging.
Young people winging are un-gratefull tools, old people are charming.
I'd prefer a cynical old anecdote ridden man than a Billy Connolly who finds everything "the most amazing".. SIGH! he used to be funny!

He needs to be sexually abused again.

I was just about to post that - awesome stuff.
I've never been entirely sure how his views actually link into why he's cycling round the world, but I couldn't really care less.

There's another chap doing it right now - about to beat the record, too, if all goes well.

Two friends of mine have been cycling back to Europe from India:

Very sadly, they were recently attacked and Adrian badly injured by thugs in Turkey. This adventure cycling is not without its risks. :(
Safe passage to all those currently on the road!

They're better again now, but he needed 20 stitches to the head. The thugs have apparently been caught and convicted. I haven't found a more up-to-date article. Adrian sayes that: 'We have been staying in Ordu for a week now and have made many friends who are ashamed that this happened to us. We have also been all over the Turkey press, and met with city dignitaries.'

Does anyone know where I can watch the BBC documentary of Mark Beaumont cycling around the world? I saw bits of it when it was originally on but didn't see it all let alone get the chance to record it. It's been taken off the iPlayer and it doesn't seem to have gone into production in the way of a DVD.
Anybody able to help?
