Actor, father, motorbike fanatic: Charley Boorman epitomises the modern day adventurer in pursuit of fresh challenges away from the success of his personal life. Choosing two wheels as his preferred mode of transport, Charley harnessed the challenges of a 'round the world trip with friend and fellow actor, Ewan McGregor in 2004 and since then has conquered some of the world's harshest challenges on two wheels including desert extremes in the Lisbon-Dakar Rally.  For news on his latest adventures, www.charleyboorman.com
