It's a British documentary (http://www.longwayround.com/lwr.htm) about two actor friends (One of who just happens to be Ewan McGregor, the other is a guy called Charley Boorman) who get the genius idea of riding their motorbikes from London to New York via this route (Taken from the website) -
Setting off in London in April 2004, Ewan and Charley travelled through some of the most beautiful, and at times dangerous, terrain the world has to offer. Crossing over into mainland Europe, they rode through France, Belgium, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Ukraine, Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia, Siberia, Alaska, Canada before arriving 115 days later at their final destination, New York City, USA.
If you get the chance to watch this (On SKY in the UK and on Bravo in the States) you should take it, not only are they a genuinely nice pair of blokes, it's also very, very funny, at times they're like a pair of twelve year olds and it's hysterical to watch. There's also a book available which hopefully I'll be buying in the next few days.
