Storyville,

An American Mans journey through Africa and the Middle East on a motorbike.

Could be worth a watch that.

Is this a re-run of Jupiter's Travels? Oh wait.... Ted Nugent was British, I think.

Globalti,Ted Simon the writer of Jupiters Travels is English.
The only Ted Nugent I've heard of is a U.S heavy rock star! 😯

Presumably it's the fella that went on to fight in Syria (before IS made that unfashionable). Vice did a piece on him.

Did anyone else watch this? Was interesting to see another side of it.

Was a bit "Citizen Smith/privileged spoilt kid playing at soldier". Really, they were just milling around with guns posing for the camera.
Also, the guy really reminded me of Matt Lee from the Ride The Divide film. In fact, I'd like to see a remake with Matt cycling across Africa.

Freedom for Tooting!

I watched it yes, thought it a bit odd TBH.

Very little to do with Bikes in the end, more about the Lad fighting for IS or against them I'm not too sure TBH.

Wasn't a waste of watching time, more a disappointment really.

Hey

Ho.
