Watched our Henry ride a couple of old bangers and then get misty eyed about a 70 year old supposed classic film that has aged - badly-. (Apart from Lee Marvin, I could watch him all day). Boring stuff for really old knackers. And I'm a quite old knackers myself.!

All TV shows with anything to do with motorcycling are shit.

Dunno why, there's some great car shows, but all the bike ones are rubbish.

The Fast Bikes VHS' were good back in the day, but I imagine I'd be bored fuckless if I watch Plup Friction today.

I've never ever watched one. Just not my scene. Like Sunday biker cafe meets.

Watching Colin Schiller throw himself off the edge of the Col de Mende was quite fun. Riding too fast, he got steadily more out of sync with the bends till he was turning right as the road went left. He was lucky the bike fetched up wedged against a tree not too far down the hillside.

I've still got most of them in the shed :)

If that’s The Wild One, yes it’s an awful film, like something out of Hollywood’s Poverty Row, except for having a couple of recognised actors in it.

I'd cheerfully watch Colin Schiller hurt himself, the man was a twat.
