Che Guevara and Alberto Granado's journey through South America in 1952 on a Norton 500 motorcycle is one of the most famous motorcycle journeys of all time. Guevara's experiences on that journey led him to become a key figure in the Cuban Revolution and one of the greatest icons of the twentieth century. Stephen Holmes and Pete Sandford's journey through South America in 2009 is arguably the least known motorcycle journey of all time, but it took them on th esame route, through Argentina, Chile, peru, Colombia and Venezuela. Along the way, the pair did battle with some of the most dangerous environments on the planet including the Atacama Desert (the driest place on Earth) and the mighty Amazon River. As if that wasn't tough enough, the pair had committed themselves to making the trip on authentic period Nortons just like Guevara's. Guevara's motorcycle never made the 5000 mile journey. Would Holmes and Sandford's 60-year-old bikes survive this epic trip? To infinity and beyond relates the dangerous and exciting adventure as they follow Guevara's route faithfully and experience the journey of a lifetime.
