I attended the Help for Heroes fundraiser with Charley Boorman last night. Charley Boorman was one of the guest speakers during the evening which included an auction to raise funds for the Help For Heroes charity.
This was my first live session with Charley Boorman - interesting character! He told various stories from his trips, including Long Way Round, By Any Means and his recent trip to Afghanistan to talk to the troops.
Here are a few photos:

My favourite... This bike completed a Trans-Africa trip in 2005 down the East Coast.
