I think its great to have 2 known personalities who are likable types publicizing adventure travel. It provides a little balance to the news stories on outlaw gangs being busted for smuggling guns or dealing drugs; especially when our politicians always end up grandstanding on the 1%er problems.
Without the media circus and support, the average (non-motorcycling) Joe Public and his impressionable children, would not be exposed to this type of riding/travel and so it helps differentiate it from the bad elements.
We also shouldn't forget the charitable contribution they apparently are making through this.

Hi All, Well spoted John!  I was hoping that you and i wern''t the only ones to see the benefits of this motorcycling publicity, what ever way and how they did their jurney.......it's got to be good news for us, It may even stop a few idle bigits (in govenments etc)  from helping to put a "hang mans noose" around our motorcycling necks, to see some good come from riding two wheels anyweres in the world, with added benefit to charitys 
Afterall there's more to life than reading about it 
Cheers all TDMalcolm
