Um???????

[Duke girl]

Well the November issue of the Motorcycle Trader has advertised this Series stating that it is starting on Monday 6th Feb 2012 so l guess we will just have to see who is right and who is wrong. :)

[Coolz]

I just flipped on to chanel 110 and scrolled through their menu, no mention of motorcycles for tonight. The nuclear thing is on at 8pm.

[Grumph]

Mo Haley was telling me about this series at the GP...reckons no one will talk to him after his bit airs. Said he got stuck in about false histories and fake classics.....about time too.

Pity I can't get either of the advertised channels.

[Duke girl]

Not on tonight but will start on Monday 27th Feb 8pm as they put it up on the screen before the start of the 8pm show thats on now. My apologies to you all but l was only going by what was advertised in the November issue of the Motorcycle Trader page 19.

I thought Bill Hohepa was dead and was only into fishing. :mellow: yellow

[Virago]

Even Google has never heard of it?

Edit - could be "Bill Hohepa Talks Motorcycles".

[nosebleed]

You're right to connect death and fishing with Hohepa, just not his.

[Duke girl]

Find a copy of the November issue of Motorcycle Trader and turn to page 19 and you can see for yourself as there is a photo of Bill Hohepa standing next to a 1942 Indian. He is talking to Bill Troughton who owns the bike.

I only posted the pic coz I tried to set my pvr to tape it. Will do on 27th. Thanks

No worries mate, I will have to watch the repeats, Freeveiw dish is on a funny angle after the weekends storm

Are you going to the Nats at HD in 2 weeks?

[blackdog]

Wicked. Cheers for the reminder.

[scumdog]

Watched it, not to bad, mainly about classic bikes - and classic racers.

[Duke girl]

Really enjoying this Series and listening to the owners of their machines Bill is chatting with and the conversations he is having with them about the history of their bike.
Tonights was extra good because it was about a lady by the name of Lynda who use to race a few years ago on a 1926 AJS under the number 11.
Awesome viewing.
Also a young Female Racer from ChristChurch who Peter Jones has had alot to do with her and her Racing down Sth on the Streetstock 150's by the name of
Scout Fletcher who took Lynda's 1926 AJS out on the track at The Classic Meeting at Pukekohe in February.
Very Talented young Racer.

Mines just got a dish. Had to do the setup on it again to get Prime and then Cue started working too, TV3 +1 did as well. Handy for watching TV3 a hour later when programs clash

[Duke girl]

Seems to me that those who have Freeview dont seem to have channel 23 which l cant understand y not. All l can say is get in contact with them and find out what the hell is going on.
Just wondering whether or not they will eventually bring out this 13 Part Series on DVD so therefore those of you out there who haven't been able to watch it on TV will still get a chance to see it through DVD. :)
