Thanks for the heads up. A colleague talked about this when it was last on and I missed it. Have set it to record!

If you want to see Penn being told he can't go into half the places that make the components he buys then it's don't miss TV

It was a totally hideous bike that he put together too.

As a bit of balance. It is nice, easy watching tv about bikes. Yeah, he doesn't get to film stuff. Yeah, the colours he picks are his own choice, and I wouldn't go for the same. But, it's his dream bike. Not mine, not yours. Better than 99.9% of anything else on tv.

I thought it was ok - not a bad watch. Bit too much history for me - I personally would have liked there to have been more on the frame building process - lets face it, the frame is the "heart" of a bike. Ok colours are not to everyones taste but imho the frame is spot on - if you see one of these in "the flesh" they're really lovely!

No, not half, TWO of them.

I enjoyed it - nice to see a TV program about bikes!
Final build was a bit of a dog I agree, but Rob was enthusiastic and that's the main thing. The fact that he couldn't get into Campag and CK (I think) was no big deal, after all he's just a regular bloke, and that was the whole point.

I watched it last time it was on and found it really interesting. Not my idea of my dream bike but good tv nonetheless.
