"Join Phil Keoghan from the hit television series "The Amazing Race' as he bike rides across America, averaging 100 miles a day. Witness Phil's ultimate journey as if you were right there with him. You will laugh, cry, and feel absolute joy."

It's also airing on Showtime right now in the USA. Good stuff, and Phil comes across as a genuinely likeable guy.

I loved this documentary. My wife and I watched it last week and were both commenting how we would love to attempt a journey like his.

The cool part is the fact that Phil Keoghan appears to be a "true" cyclist. Many times when you see celebrities portrayed as cyclist, they are shown on a bike with flat handle bars and pedals with straps. Phil had a very nice Specialized bike with an SRM Powermeter. He just looked like your typical roadie. Truth be told, he looks like he is a darn strong rider. I was very impressed with him and his efforts to raise money for MS. Mucho respect

It's entertaining. Kind of like taping a long ride with non-aggressive roadies.
