When Canadian brothers Colin & Ryan Pyle set out from Shanghai on a motorcycle journey that had never previously been attempted, they thought they had some idea of what lay ahead of them. It was a misconception that had become evident by the end of Day 1. But, despite the many challenges they faced, 65 days & 18, 000 km later they'd succeeded in circumnavigating China. In an expedition of extremes, Colin & Ryan visited the third lowest point on Earth & slept at Everest Base Camp beside its highest mountain. They travelled off-road through deep desert sand in suffocating heat, traversed mountain passes in freezing temperatures that turned the moisture in their clothes to ice, & rode in torrential rain through mudslides beside rapidly rising flood waters.
