Yep, I caught that last night too - very good, can't wait for part 2.

It was a bit like the film - The Worlds Fastest Indian.

 Yes, it was great. Brilliant.

I tried posting it earlier but was refused automagically by the site for spam.

Just watched and I have got to say that is the best thing I have seen for years, with a damn fine sound track. Strangely enough I have also spent some time in the company of one of the guys, bet you can guess which one Jon.

 They have to appeal to the plebian masses.  That is where most TV licence payments come from. Due to our inherent intelligence as bikers we just ignore the dross and lick the cream off the top.

TV = idiot's lantern!

Good programme.

Fastest Indian was good film too.

Was not far away from the Bonneville salt flats back in September but only made it to the Death valley ones which are much rougher and not as big, part of the death valley one is called Devils golfcourse which resembles boulders encrusted with broken glass.
