Re: Long Way Up
Nope, saw Charlie on Thefullychargedshow (yea, its all one word, nospacesinnit) youtube thing.
Should be interesting.
Seems theres buggerall charging points in much of South America but Equador is a fair hub of renewables cos they don't have any oil so they pulled their collective fingers out and got on with sorting their energy needs.

Re: Long Way Up
I hate Apple stuff, so no Apple TV, but I don't see it as a major loss. If it was self filmed, warts and all, it might be interesting, but with film crew and fixers it will be boring as fcuk.

Re: Long Way Up
I have Apple TV, well the wife does. We'll certainly try it as we enjoyed the other ones

Re: Long Way Up
Hence why Apple was the higher bidder to get a programme with a potential worldwide appeal
I am sure it will come up as a download somewhere soon. I have Apple TV as a freebie on my phone but dont fancy watching it on an iphone7 teeny screen

Re: Long Way Up
I have had a smart tv for years but you need Apple (paid for) kit to mirror from a phone to a tv. Same for an Ipad to a TV ..... you tube does it for free between the phone and TV. Apple doesnt of course. I can mirror my laptop to the TV but Ipad says no

Re: Long Way Up
I got an email from Motolegends yesterday telling me about it, along with a review of their kit, the review of Ewans jacket is quite funny.
I liked the first ever tour they did, but the second was too samey and this one is likely to be nothing new. Probably more fun for them doing it than us watching it.

Re: Long Way Up
Just looked at the belstaff advert for the 'Charley Boorman' jacket, and with a straight face the guy said
'Only £1250'

Re: Long Way Up
Yeah, watched that and tbh it's put me right off MotoLegends as a source.
Thats a ridiculous price for a jacket.

Re: Long Way Up
The competition is the same prices though, Rukka, Klim, etc, they're all north of a grand.
Personally I don't buy into having to have all that crap on just because I'm riding a bike, but I am a bit of a fashion victim and I have three Belstaff jackets and half a dozen Barbour.

I'm the other way, I'll never ride without armour at the very minimum, (due to certain events in the past), and i detest struggling into pvc over suits so prefer gear that's properly waterproof in itself.

Honestly, I feel bad for people that ride around like that, it's an entirely different experience and more like being in a car than being on a motorcycle.
If I ever get to the point where I'm scared to ride my bike without armour and multiple layers of coverings that make me feel like I'm trapped inside something then I'll actually pack it in and just use the car.

Ditto. If I can't ride to the shops in t-shirt and shorts without being scared, I shouldn't be riding a bikeHarry wrote: ↑Sun Sep 20, 2020 11:28 amYeah.Rockburner wrote: ↑Sun Sep 20, 2020 10:35 am

Re: Long Way Up
If I'm riding on the road then 99% of the time I wear a bike jacket and some sort of boots that are usually Dainese casual basketball style things, but the rest of my clothes are just my normal jeans, etc.
Although if it's offroad in the desert then it might just be jeans/t-shirt.
