If you're running iBGP or eBGP with ebgp-multihop, the neighbors need to have 
a route (static, connected, or IGP) between them. It's important that the BGP 
session is established across the intended interface. IOS enforces this by 
not allowing locally-generated BGP messages to follow a default route (or 
something to that effect).
