globalti - Membera big pile of self-indulgent drivel that sank without trace.

Mostly Balanced - MemberKTM must be kicking themselves for turning him down.
It was a pretty close run thing tbh- if the show had taken a different line on the fact that they killed one of the GSs and the others all fell apart to varying degrees, BMW wouldn't have been too happy. Likewise with the support truck in the Race to Dakar series. KTM made the right call, it just didn't quite work out.
quite liked it....least he helped some kiddy's and stuff

I thought she was British.... Could be wrong though
The swearing made it virtually unwatchable for me at times.
My dad was in the army and I work with offenders so I'm well used to coarse language, but it really was totally OTT. It's a pity that the opportunity to visit so many beautiful places didn't inspire him to delve into any of the thousands of other descriptive words that our rich and varied language holds.
I met him at a Dawn to dusk 12hr enduro in wales years ago
He came across as a nice enough guy , although tries a bit too hard to be one of the boys at times .
I hate these shows - at least we dont pay licence fee money to it, unlike all the BBC crap (julia walks across iceland - what a joke that was! Top Gear - what a pile of scripted rubbish, ETC ETC) anyway - i love a good rant at the BBC and rubbish stuff it produces - make em have adverts - the only good thing they cover, they sell off to sky (f1) to make/save a quick buck - then pay clarkson another million for next years "i'll win the challenges and everyone else is a fool"
where is the real adventure programs these days? real people doing it with a camcorder and thier whits....no backup crews!....mark baumont gets 55 mins of tv program on the bbc for his stuff (check out his rowing to the Pole) - and then they want to sell it us on DVD!!!!!!!
