The guys were Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman. The show and book were called "Long Way Round." They rode from London to New York (took a ship from Vladivostock, I think, to Alaska).

They also rode from Scotland to South Africa in a sequel called "Long Way Down." This one, I didn't like. They were much whinier this time around, for what seemed a somewhat less difficult trip.
