ROAD TO MACEDONIA



National.

“A journey measured in friends, rather than miles”.

This is the story of 3 ordinary men undertaking an extraordinary journey.

The Road to Macedonia is a journey of 5000 miles, however for the 3 riders it is not only a demanding ride but a chance to meet old friends, understand different cultures, and rediscover themselves.

Why? Because there comes a time in everybody’s life when they ask themselves what have I done? What impact has it had? How can what I’ve learnt be passed onto the next generation? And finally where am I going next?

Meet Paul Oxborough; at 40 he is taking stock of his life by making a return journey to a country that is very special to him, Macedonia. Paul has worked throughout Europe all his life as a filmmaker and youth development worker, with the aim of empowering young people to change for the better. With a mid-life crisis looming it was time to get back on his motorbike and find out if it has been worthwhile. This is also a story showing young people achieving extraordinary things. Accompanied by two other riders, each with their own personal reasons for discovery, development and change, Paul plans to make this journey, traveling through many of the countries he has previously worked in, meeting old friends and making a few new ones along the way.

For his companions this will be an all new experience, embroiling them into the cultures, homes and hearts of the people they visit. Inspiring, educating, challenging, this journey will question many of the values they have inherited. By experiencing the cultures first hand will their views change?

At the final hurdle our intrepid crew will be met at the Macedonian border and escorted to the capital city Skopje by the Macedonian Night Wolves, the largest motor bike club in the Balkans; this will culminate in the celebration of the Road to Macedonia, now they only have to get back. Only for this journey the team plans to return back in a very unique and unusual way…

In summer 2010 the social adventure begins, in a six part high definition documentary.

“Our destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things”

    Mike Rann: “Macedonia is Greek! South Australian premier Mike Rann has sparked an international diplomatic furore by accusing the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM) of stealing Greek culture and its leader, Gjorge Ivanov, of “stirring up trouble in the most dangerous way”. He made the comments in a speech at the Dimitria Greek festival in Adelaide.

    In the speech, Rann affirmed his commitment to Adelaide's Greek voters and promised his government would "remain firm and unswerving in our support for your cause. It is important because no one is entitled to steal another nation's history or culture," Rann said.

    Earlier this week, Rann said he would not be "silenced or muzzled" and would "continue to speak out on issues I believe in".

    Mike Rann, the South Australian Premier, who was caught having an affair with a barmaid? What the hell does this idiot know about Macedonia and the Macedonians. He is obviously trying to win votes in the next election and cannot be taken seriously. However, I believe he will be taken to court by the Macedonian community over the racist remarks he made towards The Republic of Macedonia and the Macedonian President. See you in court you racist prick!

    Long live Macedonia and the Macedonians!

    I AM AN INDIGENOUS ETHNIC AND CULTURAL MACEDONIAN! I WAS, AM AND ALWAYS BE GREEK!
    I ALWAYS SPOKE AND I AM STILL SPEAKING THE MACEDONIAN SPOKEN AND WRITTEN LANGUAGE: GREEK!
    I ALWAYS LIVED IN THE MACEDONIAN LAND: THE NORTHERN REGION OF GREECE!

    My confused friend, if you were Macedonian then you wouldn't call yourself greek. This northern region of greece didn't exist before 1913. Check your facts, because your statements are full of flaws that can be picked apart by a 2 year old. My intelligence tells me that you are either a grkoman, or a turkish christian whose ancestors were transplanted from anatolia to Macedonia after the partition of Macedonia in 1913.

    Long live Macedonia and the Macedonians.
