I noticed those BMW movies were on Netflix, so I tried to start watching them. What rubbish! All they do is talk about how they feel. I tried to fast forward to the riding parts, but the majority of the scenes were the two of them talking. Pretty lame stuff for sure.

Both this one and Long Way Down are good to watch in the depths of a winter when riding is months away and you do not have anything else two wheel oriented in the library. Having said that, how hard could it have been with unlimited money, full support and bikes and equipment given to them? I'm sure anyone of the fine chaps and chappesses on this forum could have done the same with the same backing.

Sorry John it was really a very local question for FJR, you really have to be a WeeGee to know but I'm sure there's plenty on it if you search. Anyway we don't do that anymore, now we blow up blocks of flats for a   :icon_lol:
