Is this the Malcolm Gladwell thing? If so it is mildly interesting...well the book was.

The Clay Porter thing? It's very, very good. Seeing Greg Minaar getting proper narked off with Clay. It's worth renting to see the fierce look on his face.

BUT:

F1rst, Clay's earlier film, is, without any question, the greatest MTB race film ever made. Every rider should watch this at least a few times.

F1rst is fantastic but the Tipping Point is equally good if you ask me.

My copy of The Tipping Point was a gift from Clay Porter himself...

... to one of his mates mates, who then gave it to me.

BTW, it's not all about Sam Hill. He features quite a bit (obviously) but it covers the whole race circus.

Oh, I thought the Tipping point was that BBC drama about ladies from the isle of Lesbos.
Think that may have been something else though

Nicko, I think you might be thinking about Tipping the Velvet.
