Good movie

[Desert Spyder]

I am looking for a good movie about road touring. The On Any Sunday movies and Why We Ride movies showcase the competition side but I'm looking for a good documentary family type of movie to share with riders. Any ideas?

The two movies by Charley Boorman and Ewan McGregor come to mind
The Long Way Round
The Long Way Down

Not a documentary, but a very good, thought provoking drama with great roads and scenery.

Check out Billy Connoly's Route 66. A fun documentary as he travels the entire Route 66 on his trike. I am a big fan of Connoly's and he is great in this show.

Free on YouTube several episodes. 3 or 4?
here is a link to the first episode you can search YouTube for the others if you like it.

I love Wild Hogs! Its too bad they didn't make a second. I hear they were but Disney axed it. I hear Bill Macy might have gone Spyder. Easy Rider is pretty cheesy.

Another vote for "long way round" and "long way down" on Netflix. Each series is ten episodes. I even bought the posters and had them framed for my office.

The cool thing is that it's all free to stream via YouTube. I use my Apple TV and it's great. No commercial breaks.

Connoly takes you from the origin of Route 66 in Chicago all the way through to California. This series is chock full of interesting historical trivia. All delivered by Connoly in that cool Scottish accent. He seems like a dude that is just happy and full of life. I'd sure go on a road trip with him!

In the second episode, he travels through Fanning MO, where the Worlds Largest Rocking Chair is, and coincidentally, where Spyderfest has it's origin. Cool stuff!

Have to agree..!!

with the Billy Connolly series. There are many but few you could relate to a roadster. These are not great cross country machines but open road..ahhh..!! :thumbup:

Movie titled "why We Ride"

I really enjoyed "Why We Ride.
