I've just finished watching Race to Dakar again, the Charley Boorman one - although Boorman gets a little wearing after a while, I still think its a great little series.

Also enjoyed the alone to deadhorse story about the guy riding up the Dalton highway.

finally, Two wheel review has quite a good channel - pretty basic, but he somehow captures the spirit of what I think riding is all about.



Any other good people/channels to follow or one-off Vids you'd recommend?

Wa hey cheers John

Might are about as amateur as they come though. No vlogging... That's not something I'm confident enough to do

I just bung a camera on and ride or track over Europe and the UK

Let me know John when you're next doing a Doni or similar and I'll get up the night before like last time for a beer (I only need one haha)

I enjoyed that one too. He's hardly northern though, he's from Nottingham!

He does like to filter quite quickly but that might be Daves fault.

Fast Bikes
MCN

Premises187 (If I'm really bored)

Call me racist but I only watch the British stuff, I get irritated by the American accents on a lot of the others. The best by far is the 44 Teeth stuff, that Budget Bike Battle is great viewing, I'm busting to watch the next episode. I even watch some of the old Used Bike Heavens from back in the day when Hammond was on there. Shame there's nothing like that on TV anymore!

In addition to some of the others above...

The Workshop - If you like the engineering side of things then he's your man. He also loathes Moonfleet which can be quite funny.
BakerXderek - Used to watch a lot of the American videos but not now due to ever increasing annoyance towards them. Still watch the occasional Baker vid though.
RevZilla
Motorcyclist Magazine (MC Garage) - Makes good quick how to videos for us noobs.

TheMissendenFlyer - Excellent reviews and stuff. Also from around my neck of the woods so it's good to see familiar roads.

I used to like Baron but gone off him now. Kind of went down hill when he started banging that Benz bird.

I tend to skip the ranty videos and live streams. The rest are fantastic though, it's been a great source of information and I hope he keeps it up.

Not really. Del puts a load of time and effort into his channel and whilst he may not get everything 100% right it's a better watch than the Workshop guy ranting and swearing.

Yeah very true. Not sure why he still says that, it spoils an otherwise well polished production.

It's a familiarity thing, I'll mention it to him.

Agree about the Baron...his head went up his own backside when he left his wife.
