Story from Ananova

Ex-reality TV star Elizabeth Woodcock is heading out on a solo tour of eastern Europe.

Woodcock, who appeared in the second series of Big Brother, picked up a flashy motorbike to use on her three-month jaunt.

The 28-year-old said: "I'll be writing travel articles on my way, the BBC want a radio diary and we're talking about a documentary too."

Woodcock, who will ride a bright red Yamaha 600 Fazer, said: "My first stop is to do a presentation at a festival in Poland on the media.

"From there, after much vodka no doubt, it'll be northwards up to Latvia, Lithuanian and Estonia where I'll be hunting out the rich and famous and not-so-rich and famous."

She then goes to Slovenia: "My reasons for going are it's an unknown place, they join the EU next year so it's highly topical, I love travel and want to ride on a motorbike.

"I also hope to produce a book at the end of it all ... if I'm in one piece."

Woodcock notably stripped off and ran into the sea in the video which brought her to the attention of BB show bosses.

Sounds fascinating!!

Incidentally, who remembers Elizabeth saying during BB2 she would love to ride around on a powerful motorbike wearing a bright orange catsuit, stiletto heels and with her hair dyed purple? Well, she's got the motorbike so far ............................. :laugh:

Elizabeth wasn't my favourite BB2 housemate but I do wish her well.

This sounds an interesting venture for her :thumbs:

Thanks for the link, dinallt - I wish Elizabeth every success in her journey, and look forward to reading the updates in her diary. :thumbs:

Good on her, I know I'd have jumped at the chance to do something like that if I'd been given the opportunity.

I confess I wasn't a big fan of Liz and never thought much of her looks-wise. But I have to admit she does look damn nice in that pic! Anyway, Good luck to her and hope all goes well with the trip through Europe.:dance:
