Saw that a couple of weeks ago .... nice idea for a trip but I think the political situations en-route would prove ..... well, sort of hinderous!  They also said that the route was now impassable in some places, the jungle having reclaimed what little road there was.

Class acheivement though, big respect to the guys who did it.  Reckon they must have taken huge a supply of pile cream!
